they’d ask every third page if I was realllllly sure I didn’t want to give them more money. Yes, I’m really sure.

TaxHawk was free and the return amount was exactly the same as TurboTax. Goodbye TurboTax.

Another plug for TaxHawk. I’ve done my taxes with TurboTax for the last 10 years. Tried taxhawk this year.

Each state is a fee of about $16. Whether you mail or e-file. Federal is always

Anyone know if tax hawk will give you a schedule C

Acorn

Yes, you just need to select to start a Schedule C. It's fairly easy to file a

One thing I like about TurboTax is you can download your 1099 B’s

Acorn

Unfortunately, no. If you have a summary statement, you can enter that.

A couple of corrections — deluxe also includes live chat. Fees for filing are

Yes. TurboTax seems to have more auto import options. I had to input everything on TaxHawk. Took me about 30mins longer

Less everything.

That's how TaxAct was for me 8-10 yrs ago. Then they jacked up prices. Wonder if

Great software. Owners are BYU fans too.
