You’ve been there before. Tax time, endless hours waiting, endless lines, crying babies, griping adults, phones ringing, people in and out the door. Waiting in an office for 2-3 hours to get my taxes filed just isn’t an option anymore. Especially not since TaxAct came on the scene!! Do you have any idea how easy it is to file a simple return, right at home? On your own computer? In your pajamas, even?!?! Oh, and the best part is, it’s FREE!!

Here are the biggest reasons you should file your own income tax returns at home, using TaxAct!

 

tax-act-free

#1 – It’s FREE!

Yes! Filing your federal tax return with TaxAct is free! There are features that do cost and if your tax return is more indepth, like if you need to file long form or take business deductions, you should opt for the Deluxe or Ultimate options.

 

#2 – You can file both Federal and State returns

Most of us have to file both a federal and state tax return. You can do both easily with TaxAct. The cool thing is that it’s set up to pull your information on over to your state return too, so you don’t have to re-enter important information. Saves SO much time, you don’t even know! Just so you’re aware, most all state tax returns will cost a small fee to file electronically.

#4 – Biggest Refund guaranteed, the fastest way possible.

They guarantee the biggest refund possible – and they ask all the right questions to determine if you’re getting all the tax breaks and deductions you can take. You’ll also get lots of great options for receiving your refund, including direct deposit.

  3. I remember the days when we had to go to the local P.O. or library just to get our forms. And if we didn’t get all the right ones, back we went. So convenient now!

  5. Whatever tax software you choose, do not buy or use Intuit’s products. It is because of them, that we even have to go through this silly process each year. The IRS had offered to do your taxes for free, and either send you a bill or check. You see, the IRS already has your W2s, 1099s etc. (If you had an issue you could still file your own after a review). Who wouldn’t want that? Well, Intuit of course!

  11. Hi! I understand this is kind of off-topic but I had to ask.
    Does operating a well-established blog such as yours require a large amount of work?
    I am brand new to blogging however I do write in my journal daily.
    I’d like to start a blog so I can share my own experience and feelings online.
    Please let me know if you have any kind of ideas or tips for
    new aspiring blog owners. Thankyou!

  16. I think that what you posted made a great deal of sense.
    But, what about this? what if you were to create a killer
    title? I mean, I don’t wish to tell you how to run your blog, but suppose you added something to maybe get
    a person’s attention? I mean 5 Reasons To File Your Taxes
    at Home with #TaxAct is a little vanilla. You might look at Yahoo’s front page and
    see how they write post headlines to grab viewers interested.
    You might try adding a video or a picture or two to get people excited about what you’ve got to say.
    In my opinion, it might make your posts a little livelier.

  17. Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering if you knew of any widgets I could add to my
    blog that automatically tweet my newest twitter updates.
    I’ve been looking for a plug-in like this for quite some
    time and was hoping maybe you would have some experience with something like this.

    Please let me know if you run into anything. I truly enjoy reading your blog and I look forward to
    your new updates.

  20. Yesterday, while I was at work, my sister stole my iPad and tested to
    see if it can survive a 25 foot drop, just so she can be
    a youtube sensation. My iPad is now broken and she has 83 views.
    I know this is entirely off topic but I had to share it with
    someone!

  25. You’ve made some really good points there. I checked on the internet for more info about the issue and found most

  26. What you composed was actually very reasonable. But, think on this, suppose
    you were to create a killer headline? I mean, I don’t wish to tell you how to
    run your website, but suppose you added something that makes people desire more?

    I mean 5 Reasons To File Your Taxes at Home with #TaxAct is a little boring.
    You should peek at Yahoo’s front page and note how they create post titles to grab people to click.
    You might try adding a video or a related picture or two to get people interested about what you’ve got to say.

    Just my opinion, it would make your website a
    little livelier.

  33. I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own weblog and was wondering
    what all is required to get setup? I’m assuming having a blog like

    Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.
