TurboTax just because of inertia. They have all my previous returns so it makes no sense to switch to save $20.

Regarding state taxes, in my state at least (Maryland) the comptroller’s office runs a free “iFile” system on their site. What I do is run everything through TurboTax and write down the state return amount and then when it asks me to pay to file, I delete the state return. Adding everything to the comptroller website takes maybe 10 minutes and I am able to double check to make sure I got everything I needed by comparing the return number. Saves me $40 and takes 10 mins.

Taxslayer carries over our info as well. I would not change to save $20 either.

Turbotax - because I have to file in a lot of states and PwC gives me the states’ software free

PwC3 - yes you have to buy the software - we do get a discount - and it comes with one state. But then any additional states you need can be downloaded free. There’s typically something in PWC Inside about this - probably in the next month or so.

Do y’all get charged for tax slayer and freetaxusa? I feel like there’s always a catch with these, and end up charging me because I’m not eligible for free filing. Think I’m usually around $60-100 for TurboTax, cause they nickle and dime for everything (rollforward, state return, e-filing). Isn’t terrible, but hate paying for it regardless

Turbox tax. $0 because my spouse is in the military

Turbo Tax. $0 because EY reimburses it.

TurboTax - $50ish(?) but feels like zero because I get it taken out of my return.

$80 on turbo tax for fed and state. Could probably do it myself for cheaper or on another website for less but who has the time?

Credit karma tax is free - both federal and state. Have been using it for a couple of years now. And I do my parents taxes in the irs free efile tool since credit karma doesn’t handle one of their situations correctly.

Credit karma tax because it’s free no matter what schedules / states etc

Wait pwc gives state software free??

If you were a candidate that was reached out to by an internal recruiter and went through 5 interviews spanning more than one month would you be put off by the fact that the company couldn’t even have bothered to get back to you that they went another direction? What a poor experience as a candidate I had with them. Would they want to know or even care? Like at least thank someone for all their time and be courteous.
