This is the 5th or 6th year I have used Turbo Tax to complete my tax return. With data flowing from one year to the next, it shortens the time spent entering data. This year, even though I itemize deductions, I only spent about an hour completing and filing my taxes.
What's great about it: Walks you through every type of income and every type of deduction and credit
I have used Turbo tax for many years and have never been disappointed. It's always Accurate, Accountable, Flexible, Timely, Up-to-date, What If Scenarios are easy ...
What's great about it: Accurate, Accountable, Flexible, Timely, Up-to-date
I got married and bought a house this year. It is also my first full year out of college. I was intimidated at first to try to do my own taxes, but TurboTax made it a breeze! I was prompted to claim expenses that i would have missed out on otherwise. I will definitely be a lifelong TurboTax user, and will also consider other intuit products. I am not easy to impress, but I couldn't find a single flaw with this program.
What's great about it: EASY! CONVENIENT! WAY CHEAPER THAN TAX Profesional!
What's not so great: NONE
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion), I moved, I bought or sold investments
This is the best program for preparing taxes. From 1-10, 10 being the best I would have to give it a 20. Also free e-filing for federal taxes is a plus.
