For quite a few years I filed my own taxes. Before I owned my home and had my own business, filing taxes was super simple. Just plug in some numbers and I was done and my taxes were sent for filing. Having a business and owning a home changes makes taxes a little more difficult. Once things got complicated I went to one of the popular tax companies that claim to help to get the best refund for you. NOT. From my experience, I could have done a better job filing my taxes myself than the people who are supposed to be tax specialists that I paid too much hard earned money for preparing my return.
Last year I decided to give the Turbo Tax Deluxe online version a go. Since I had watched the supposed “tax specialists” prepare my taxes over a computer the previous years, I knew what information was going to be needed. I plugged in my numbers and filed my tax return. Last year I was so happy to have tried Turbo Tax. Not only did I save time, I saved myself money on paying someone to do a job that I could do better and I got a BIGGER return. I only wish I had tried Turbo Tax before.
This year, I knew that the online version of Turbo Tax was going to be my option. I was so excited to login and the system have all my contact information as well as other important information that I didn’t need to re-type into the system. It saved me time on having to go through my filing cabinet to look for the information that it had stored/saved for me. Again, filing my taxes this year was a BREEZE. It will take you step through step through each section to make sure you get your maximum refund. I was done preparing my taxes in no time and was able to submit it online.
If you need to file your taxes, I would give Turbo Tax a try. If you are filing just the 1040EZ, you can do it online for FREE. The paid versions of Turbo Tax are on sale right now too! Right now you can file using the Deluxe version for only $29.95.
