NO, I Used TaxAct and it costed me $124 (taken out of refund), when it gets processed, over 22 days now, still processing. So paying a tax preparer to electronically file it for you doesn't help at all. Non of the tax software helps you, it takes your money, fills it out for you (maybe not making a mistake), files it electronically, and that's it. If you paid for an professional audit service, that doesn't even help while the return is still in processing mode. I emailed taxact thursday about mine and a rep finally messaged me back on facebook and said quote, "We can't do anything after the IRS has it and it is in the processing mode, we are at the mercy of the IRS, sorry there is nothing we can do until after it processes".I can't even speak to a tax professional on Taxact, rdiculous to say the least.
