TaxAct Deluxe is a Great Product.
I have used TaxAct for a number of years and the software just seems to get easier and easier. I had to reach out to a expert this year via phone and she was so helpful. I will continue to use TaxAct in the future.

Easy to use.
I am so happy with the service I was able to speak with the expert as many times as needed until I felt confident that I filled everything out correctly. My return came quickly with no issues.
