hmmm, let's see. the government provides the form. the states provide the form.
how hard is it to write a program to let you complete and fill out the form?
the horrible horrible fiasco turbo tax is having this year seems to indicate this will be their last year.
there is no excuse for any of this.
i paid $50 for the desktop verison and THEN paid $20 to electronically file state. IT NEVER TRANSMITTED EITHER RETURN. But they still took my money BEFORE they did NOTHING. That makes them crooks. What else do you call it when they take your money and give you nothing?!
So, then, they said 'use their online portal' and the activation code would work when it came time to file there so i wouldn't be charged twice.
Again, they make you pay before they transmit the file. i geve them my credit card and they billed me $80 and took nothing off for the valid activation code i entered from the desktop verion. so i did NOT transit my returns! THEY STILL TOOK THE MONEY!
I strongly suggest everyone check out creditkarma dot com. they let you file for free and state return file for free too. BTW h&r block also does both for free. turbo tax is also supposed to be free for people in my situaltion tax bracket. they are breaking the law there too. crooks!
