  • Customer review stars 5 out of 5

    Awesome

    "Was easy to step through personal, income, credits, exemptions. Everything was pretty self explanatory. I did use help twice and found the answer both times. Used the community, and not the expert. What a great way to do my taxes."

    every year"

    Easy Peasy

    "I thought that this year's taxes would be difficult to complete with the child tax credits and with new investments we made this year. Turbotax made it really easy and uncomplicated."
