It worked for a standard return but doesn't work correctly for a return of a deceased individual. The return was rejected by the IRS twice stating that I was not the court appointed representative. However on the 1310 form option B was selected which designates I am the legal representative. Also the software requested I upload the probate order from the court which I did. Trying to print the entire return to mail in didn't work either. The forms stopped print after schedule B. Calling support provided no solution
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I'm retired, got all done entering my pension IRA'S, 401k, dividends, RMD's, and interest. Owed zero taxes. Then I entered my Socicial Security then I owed money. I looked and looked and finally found it. It is very to go backb harlf once a person does a final check.
Pros: Easy to prepare

We’re so happy to hear you had a great experience. We appreciate your business and thank you for the valuable feedback.
The tax software just gets you into trouble by not being able to properly handle non-standard easy tax situations. It had me thinking I owed a fine for underpayment, even though I had paid more than my prior year and was thus in the safe harbor state. Additionally, there was no clear questionaire for the payment sequence questions - just the raw form. If I wanted to fill out raw IRS forms, I'd have just done that for free and not payed for software. In the end the tax return still has errors in it, but not that would affect what I owe, but now I still need to review the whole thing in detail as I don't trust the return was correct. So whats the point of Deluxe all it can reliably due is below Basic level?
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to prepare

Had an issue that almost cost me almost $400 on my arkansas return. The software could not correct a problem the error checker found. The implication was that I file a paper return or correct manually to file and save $400.
Cons: Doesn't maximize refund
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
