TaxAct does not e-file for free, despite being an IRS free file partner TaxAct is listed under the IRS trusted partners for free E-filing of your tax return. I fulfilled the criteria for free filing but they still tried to charge me $50 to file the foreign income tax exclusion form, which means it is not a free file program. It is also impossible to delete your account without contacting the company, which is difficult when you are living abroad. Please avoid TaxAct if you are trying to use the IRS free file offer.

I have used TaxAct for 8 yrs I have used TaxAct for 8 yrs. For 2020, they went to zero phone support so they are now stuck with major poor reviews from users who can't check their experience with a support person to validate. For me and my business, their platform cannot provide the flexibility to handle business 1099-INT's correctly so I won't be able to use it again. The form doesn't allow altering the tax ID to the lending business. The result is that interest shows up on the personal Schedule B instead of the business Schedule C.

Absolute SCAM!! Absolute SCAM!!! Please be warned, it all looks good then you pay, thinking you are set. After you pay is when they completely fail you. They take you money then screw you.

I have been using them for years I have been using them for years. But the fees are getting out of control. And I'm not paying any more. I'm going to try another tax prep next year.

Evil new podcast ads talk about how much Taxact hates doing taxes whilst being the lobbyists who insist laws exist to make the taxes impossible to do. Evil.
