Tax Software for couple

Submitted by Brouck6 t3_11e89o3 in personalfinance

Any suggestions on which tax preparation software to use? We usually used my Mother-In-Laws HR Block on their computer but have moved away.

Things to consider for our situation:

We sold our old house and purchased a new one.

We installed a heat pump that has a tax rebate attached to it.

Combined we made around $140k this year.

TaxSlayer and TurboTax self-guided programs are always super easy but beware because both companies have been accused of selling data to 3rd parties like credit card companies.

I've actually never heard anything good about HR Block.

Depends on your situation but https://www.freetaxusa.com/ is always helpful.

If your situation is more complicated you may need to look into hiring a CPA.

This really depends on personal preference with their interface. For example I like Free File Fillable Forms because it's just like completing the official forms and I prefer the privacy policy (the IRS restricts what companies in the Free File program can do), but other people prefer to be asked questions and have the software generate form entries. You can expect that any software would support your situation.
