Have been using this tax software for years. It is an overall good package with some quirks such as limited support for new filing rules the year they come out and odd way of supporting the trad IRA to Roth IRA recharacterations.
Pros: Easy to prepare
I would recommend this to a friend!

Pros: Maximizes refund

I have used Tax Cut for more than 10 years. It had been fine in the past as I got used to its questionnaire-way of preparing tax returns. But this time for 2023 tax returns, I couldn't e-file it on 4/14 for whatever strange reasons. So the next day, the deadline, I had to print out my tax returns to file them manually by going to the post office in person to use certified mail which was extremely inconvenient. On 4/20 since I wondered if H&R Block had fixed its e-filing issues, I tried to e-file again, and surprisingly my tax returns went through. I don't know if it will cause issues because I had already mailed in my tax returns by 4/15. But my tax returns were e-filed on 4/20 that might be considered filing late because I didn't file extensions o 4/15 (I couldn't because Tax Cut had e-filing issues.) I may have to consider other software as I do not want the same issues happen again for the 2024 tax returns. The whole purpose of spending money to buy the tax software is to be able to e-file conveniently. But if I couldn't even file on time, why would I buy it? Will explore other possibilities. H&R Block may be focusing on people filing online at its website, that may be why they didn't care enough about their download software properly to have the e-filing problems.
Pros: Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents
Cons: Time consuming

Great software with one minor flaw. Software does not allow you to attach the qualified business statement which, requires a signature. The software fails to explain how to attach the document.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
