I knew my return was going to be simple this year so decided to try Tax Act to file a free return. Fairly nice program but I did wonder why they had me enter my bank info in one of the first steps. They said it was to on direct file IRS would use it for Direct deposit. Entered all the info and started the review of the return and at that point they say Need toUpgrade to Deluxe version $35 because I had interest income. Well they ask for the infomation and provided the forms for Interest income and computed the tax with it. It’s a bait and switch, you think it’s free then they hit you at the end with a charge if you want to do anything with the information.


Taxact is terrible!

I’m going to Turbo Tax. Tax act is a joke. It’s supposed to be free, then they say I need to upgrade to have a more accurate refund(which I don’t need or want). There is no way to file my taxes on here without paying $69.90 for something they advertise being free. I tried to pay seven times, but the app glitches out whenever I try and put my credit card info in. I don’t even think I’m going to finish filing my taxes on tax act. I’m going to do them on Turbo Tax. Doing taxes is strenuous enough, but tax act makes filing them even more stressful.


Good
