GBNever again I've used TaxAct for many many years. For the first time, I had a bad experience. I live in New Hampshire, where there's no state tax, however, when I submitted my federal return, they also submitted my non-existent state return. They charged me $69.99 for the federal return, and $59.99 for the state return. I called customer service and asked them to refund me the $59.99. They only refunded $11.99 because it was already submitted to the IRS. If someone doesn't have to file a state tax return, why do they still submit it?! It seems very scammy to me. I'm leaving TaxAct and will be using a different software in the future.

GBNot much help beyond printing the return I'm amazed that there is no information for where to send your paper tax return for Federal or state. Apparently in September you can't e-file and you have to mail it in. Come on Tax Act, don't make us hunt all over for a mailing address. This is sloppy programming.

GB"Deluxe" or we don't help you "Pay us for the Deluxe service or else we provide a service less than bare minimum." Terrible greed.

DETaxAct 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.

GBPick 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 The program is outdated and expensive for the lack of updates.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.
