The best way to file“I love using TurboTax. We always get a good return and never have issues getting our return. I used Jackson Hewitt and H&R Block in the past. Never again.”

NICE PROGRAM“I have used this to file my taxes from 2008-2016 and should have never stopped. H&R Block has been decent but EXPENSIVE! Jackson Hewitt made mistakes and caused trouble, and I will never ever leave TurboTax. User-friendly and easy to maneuver. Thanks, everyone! Happy Easter! -KRK”

Return Turbo Tax user“I've been using TurboTax for quite a few years now. I just wasn't happy with H&R Block or Jackson Hewitt when they prepared my taxes. It's easy to use and guides you every step of the way.”

TurboTax Review“I use TurboTax almost every year and it has saved me money on filing fees, is easy to use, and the refund amount is accurate based on a comparison I did a couple of years ago when I filed with Jackson Hewitt for a refund advance. TurboTax now offers refund advances.”

Love TurboTax!!!!“I've been using TurboTax for the past 6-8 years and I simply love it. It's so user-friendly! It takes me step by step and I'm done with my taxes within 30 minutes instead of hours at a tax place like H&R Block or Jackson Hewitt. Not to mention the great price for service, which can also be deducted from my return so I don't even have to pay upfront. Thanks, TurboTax!❤️”

Turbo Tax is very easy“I was very apprehensive about doing my own taxes. I have had my credit union do my taxes for the past two years, and before that, Jackson Hewitt. My credit union decided not to do taxes anymore and I really did not want to go back to a tax preparer if I did not need to. My daughter-in-law used TurboTax and said it was very easy and fast. So that is why I used TurboTax. Very glad I did.”

TurboTax is user friendly, fast and effective“I have used H&R Block, Jackson Hewitt, and some others, but TurboTax beats them all. TurboTax is user-friendly and you don't even need an accountant to file your taxes. Very simple and easy to do yourself.”

Love Turbo Tax!!!!! Go too from now on!“I have gone to H&R Block for years, and prior to that, went to Jackson Hewitt. TurboTax made this easy to use and helped me with all questions tax related.”

I LOVE Turbo Tax“I have used TurboTax for several years. In fact, I once went to Jackson Hewitt. They showed me owing money. A friend told me to try TurboTax to see what they said, and in fact, I GOT MONEY BACK. When I am stuck or need help, there is always a live person I can talk to.”

TURBOTAX IS GREAT“TurboTax is literally the only software tax prep service I will ever use again. I've been using it for years now and I have always received a higher return than I would at H&R Block or Jackson Hewitt. It's simple and easy to use and they have live tax help. Highly recommended.”

turbo tax for the win“I tried to use Jackson Hewitt this year and it was a disaster. So I came back to TurboTax and I got my taxes done in one sitting. So easy and straightforward.”

Love TurboTax“I have been filing with TurboTax for years. I have tried others, like H&R Block and Jackson Hewitt, but seemed to pay more than is necessary to file with them. I enjoy entering my info myself and watching my return grow.”

I AM LIVING FOR THE TURBO AND THE TAX HONEY!!“This is my fourth year with TurboTax and I am so glad to be returning again. This is by far the best and easiest method of completing my taxes. I work part-time and have a babysitting service on the side and I am always given the max refund with TurboTax. I'm a lifer for sure! Never going back to Jackson Hewitt or the other guys again! I'm here to stay!”

I love Turbo Tax“They were great with support! I was walked through my taxes and I made a mistake. I was able to fix it instantly. This is not so with Jackson Hewitt, who I’ve been with since 2001 until 2022. They have become so expensive but TurboTax is affordable.”

Simple, Scares me“I've used TurboTax for about five years now. It's very simple, and that kind of scares me. So I occasionally send messages to their staff and they answer everything I need to know. So far, never done anything wrong, never been audited, and the cops haven't shown up. I got some solar panels this year, though, so we'll see what happens next year. I keep coming back because it has given me a small bit of confidence, and is certainly cheaper than some "professional" at an H&R Block, Jackson Hewitt, or other pop-up shops after the first of the year. Plus, when they ask me questions, it usually requires I come back with more paperwork later. With this program, I can save my progress and come back later. It only took me a couple of hours total. I feel like I'm sitting somewhere else for nearly the entire day. They are just using a program like this to input everything anyway. Can you follow instructions as prompted? You can do your own taxes.”

Easy to use!“I've used TurboTax for years after Jackson Hewitt got to be too expensive to deal with. TurboTax is easy to use and walks you through each step. I do still get nervous not dealing with a live person, but have had no issues with my filings to date, even when having to file for incomes from two different states!”

I have tried others but TurboTax is better“I have a great deal of tax prep anxiety so, last year, I tried Jackson Hewitt. I thought steering away from my normal TurboTax prep and going somewhere where someone would do it for me would be better. It wasn't. It was so much worse. While TurboTax doesn't take away all of my tax anxiety, I can file my taxes with confidence that it is done correctly and knowing that I will be helped out if I need it. Taxes suck; TurboTax makes it a tiny bit better.”

Satisfied with Turbo Tax“I have been using TurboTax for many years. Every year I use, I feel kind of disappointed with the user-friendliness of the software. I am a tax professional at Jackson Hewitt and I have clients who come from TurboTax and I wind up amending returns. Client then becomes a Jackson Hewitt customer.”

Its ok“I thought it was supposed to be free but it gets you with all the payments at the very end but it still came out cheaper than H&R Block and Jackson Hewitt early bird, so that was I guess a good thing.”

Too much redundancy“I understand working towards safety and security when it comes to this kind of information, but considering that this is only done once a year, it was very irritating to have codes sent to "verify it's you" when you've put in passwords and already put in one set of codes. Then I was asked to verify my return about five times. I verified it once, and that was plenty. Next year, I will go to Walmart and have Jackson Hewitt do them. This was very irritating and stressful.”

Every year the process gets more difficult“I have been using TurboTax for quite some time now, and I have to say that this year was the most difficult to get through. You constantly ask for more identification information but make it extremely difficult to find said information. Once the information is found and entered, everything gets rejected. I've never had problems using the app, but every year it gets harder to navigate, more frustrating, and more time-consuming. That's why I used Jackson Hewitt last year, but I thought I would give you another chance this year. That was my mistake.”
