I know taxes are the last thing you want to think about right now… or if you are getting a bunch of money back, it may be something you want to be thinking about. Either way, if you haven’t tried out Turbo Tax, you might want to. This is what I have used in the past for our family. It walks you through everything step by step and shows you exactly how much money you are losing or getting back throughout the entire process- and even after you finish each page of information. So you know exactly where you are at!
To prepare and eFile for your Federal Taxes is free if you do it online. And, you don’t have to purchase the actual software. You can just do it all online!
Head over right now and create a sign in for Turbo Tax and you can start entering in your info. Once you have your W-2 or 1099 from your employer, add that in and see where you are at! You can get your taxes filed early and get your money back within a few days!! It gets automatically transfered to your bank account!
You can also try out Tax Act! They offer a FREE Federal Filing as well. I haven’t personally used these guys before. But I know a lot of people who have and they have liked it!
If you are thinking about trying out H&R Block and doing your own taxes, you can actually register for a Free Edition! You can put in all of your tax information and work through it a bunch of different ways and add in deductions. You can even work on it over the next month or so. You can prepare, print and e-file your Federal tax return for free! And if you do choose to file, you will pay for your state return. But in my experience, it isn’t very much at all.
So why not try them out for free?? You don’t have to file if you don’t like it. But you might love them!!
