Used it last year because I missed out of turbotax. I am pretty hands on and file premier version. This is a inferior product comparing to turbotax. Avoid.

Don't even bother, use FreeTaxUSA (Terrible name but it's legit) for free Federal returns regardless of income/type of income and $13 for state.

Trying to move on from Tax Act because their prices keep going up, and I'm moving out of the age bracket for the free IRS offer.

Looking at OLT.com since its one of the many free ones on the IRS site and has very few limitations compared to the others. Anyone have experience with them?

You mean propert tax?
Some cities, New York, Newark, and Detroit, as examples also charge income taxes (these are ones that I have paid personally). Some counties do as well.

Anyone know how to request the IRS send all of your previous taxes back to you?
4506-T will get you a transcript which details what was filed (or not). 4506 will get you a copy of your return but there's a fee.

I have used taxact for a good 10 years, each year costing $10-15 (federal only).

Last year the same was $64, minus the amex 30% credit. Wow, great deal.

Edit: It's $35 now, not so bad.

Mind you, if you sold stock in 2020, then you need the "Premier" tier for Capital Gains and Losses, Schedule D.

At the very least you can enter your info into a few softwares and see if they all come up with the (more or less) same numbers - you won't be able to see the actual forms without paying, but if they all come to similar numbers insofar as what you pay or owe, there's good confidence they're all correct.

I did that a few years ago when we had an income jump, and I wound up owing a big chunk of change, except TT wanted me to pay a penalty whereas TA and HRB said I didn't owe it because of the income change. They all came up with the same big payment - boo for me, but at least it told me it was very unlikely there was an error somewhere.
