Pick a different one I've been using Taxact yearly for quite awhile. Going to switch next year even though that's quite a hassle. The price isn't worth the never ever updated product. Taxact is NOT intuitive at all. Everything is complicated and unhelpful. The program is outdated and expensive for the lack of updates. It's no longer the cheap alternative to expensive tax programs. Avoid it.

This company is completely unethical This company is completely unethical. They scammed me this year with a bogus “coupon” that ended up costing me twice as much as the basic service would have cost. To revert to regular pricing though, I would have had to go back and start the return from scratch. There’s also another “small print” scam waiting for unwary purchasers. They give you what looks like an option to pay for the tax prep out of your refund. But, that actually means you’re applying for a refund anticipation loan, so you’ll end up paying fees and interest on top of their fees. Stay far, far away from this company.

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.

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.

I used taxact many years ago and it… I used taxact many years ago and it worked fine. And this year (for tax year 2023) I paid $80 to file for my father, who got a couple 1042-S forms. All the gross income I put in on the 10420-S forms are not reflected at all in the final electronic filing, and the return was rejected by IRS immediately. I triple, yes triple checked everything and there's no mis-typing or anything, and the gross income just does not reflect on the return at all. I called TaxAct and basically what I got is "please pay us another $40 to use our expert help to fix the issue", what? I have to pay more in order to fix TaxAct issues?? Okay see you no more.
