easy to use, great product. The other major brand turned me off forever when they did not allow me to use the program on my laptop and my desktop at the same time. I need to do this for backup reasons and to be able to work from home and the office...
Pros: Easy to prepare

Missing function for Social Security Fairness act.

I was very disappointed that the software did not support lump-sum Social Security payments. Due to the law change in early 2025, millions of taxpayers who worked in the public sector received payments in 2025 for 2024.
Pros: Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
Cons: Time consuming, Doesn't maximize refund, Hard to prepare, Hard to import documents
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Although the product is better than competitors, it failed to properly import all information on 4 forms. I realize it was my mistake to not check all imported info, but it was frustration to find I paid over $1,000 more in tax than I should have.
Pros: Easy to prepare
Cons: Doesn't maximize refund, Hard to import documents

Works fairly well but has some annoyances. First, "save as PDF does not work." Second, time it takes to install updates is too long.

I have bought this product for about 10 years now, but the 2025 version is not so good. Whenever I tried to update the product, I got a "cannot connect to server" error message. The message suggested that I go to the product update website and download the update. I did that, but it was an unnecessary step. And I had to do this step for every update.
And to make matter worse, I got the same error message when i tried to download the state version. I went to your website for the PA state download, but it never showed up. In fact as of today, the state version still doesn't show in the list of state. I kept playing around with your website and somehow (I'm not sure what I did) until I was able to download the PA state program.
I have no problems connecting to other financial websites, so I don't know what the problem really is. This error is very frustrating to deal with. I'm not sure that I will purchase the 2026 version or not. I don't want to deal with this hassle.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Fast
Cons: Doesn't maximize refund, Hard to import documents
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This was my first year using electronic submission of my Taxes. I sent both Federal and State taxes in on January 30, 2026. Both refunds were in my checking account on February 9, 2026. I am sure glad I did this because there was one State deduction I did not know about that came up during to program use. Ease of use is one of the great things about the software. I am very pleased with the software and is well worth the price. Will surely use it in the future.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
