Anyone use Tax Act to file?

[Frank_N_Stein]

I have been a diehard user of Turbo Tax for the last several years. TaxAct has a significantly lower cost. Anyone ever use it? Any good or bad experiences with it?

I also use to use Turbo Tax and well now i got a secretary aka Wife She uses TaxAct and i helped out a little but I felt it was good.

No experience with Tax Act, but I usually use Completetax.com, but the cost is up there. Great site, but expensive.

this year I used FreeTaxUSA™ FREE Tax Filing, Online Return Preparation, E-File Income Taxes and I liked it... Check out the site for your costs...

I use to use Tax Slayer.

Online Taxes | Free Tax Preparation | $9.95 For Federal When Satisfied | Free Filing For Military-Active Duty |


But I have since been going to H&R Block. But I'm tired of paying them $100's to do it. I think Tax Act is what my son used this year. He's happy with it.

I'll be doing my own starting next year and would also appreciate anyone's take on it.

I've used TaxAct for the last 4 years and I like it. It's just as good as H&R Block's TaxCut.

I've also used TaxAct for the last 4 years and had no problems. I also use it to help out family and friends. I think it cost $14.95 for fed and state.

Thanks for the quick replies. I'm going to check it out.

I used HRblock one year, turbotax 2 years and then went to Tax Act, have had it for 2 years going to be 3rd this year,

The only thing that I have to say is unclear is when doing my parents taxes my mom retired from the gov. between 94-96 and they had a special category for those people, I didn't know it and when the tax software asked the question it didn't have help for this 2 year period

yes I know thats pretty picky but thats the ONLY thing it missed, and I have a feeling I had something to do with that.

I'm happy with taxact

Another +1 for TaxACT. I have used it for the past few years because I was so tired of paying HRBlock WAY too much money to do my taxes. TaxACT was consistent with the returns I'd been getting from HRBlock so my opinion would be that it's pretty accurate. I plan on using it again this year.
