I know people prefer to complain instead of act, but what is something people don’t like but has an alternative?

      I’ve used freetaxusa for almost 20 years now. I’m always surprised more people don’t know about it (granted, from the name, it does sound like a total scam).

      Wish we didn’t have to file taxes at all though…we have the technology.

      Have a care with some of those.

      One year I tried a couple of those free services, and they told me I owed over $5k. Not even exactly the same number. But turbo tax told me I only needed to pay $2k. Guess which one I used?

      Not saying it’s always that way, but made me a lot more cautious about the smaller tax filing sites. It’s worth doing your taxes twice or more before submitting them to see the difference.
