Used to use Taxact. Became too expensive. Switched to TurboTax last year.

By going to upgrade options like you, it said I am currently on premier at $17.xx which is what I wanted. However, going back to the My Account, it shows this return is at $34.99. What about you?
I did not check like you did, I remember there was something in the email to the point that the final price will apply at the time of filing or something like that, so I didn't worry too much once I saw that my account already reflected 17.xx as the correct discounted price. Taking a screenshot as someone suggested would be smart, just in case, but I wouldn't be surprised if like you said the system shows in some other place still the full price. I guess the magic will only work when we are ready to file.

Just remember to restart this same filing that you started now when you get back into your account in Jan/Fab, instead of starting a brand new filing (I think that happened to me last year, I created the new one and confused the hell out of me), otherwise the system will probably charge you a full price for the newly started filing, instead of this one from today that is supposed to be half price.

Used to be a customer, better and cheaper options out there now.


Yea www.freetaxusa.com works great and free for most.

Even then the IRS has free/low cost options at their site as well.

Correct, tried as well. Last year the best for download was the xyzzy% back from Amex offers when purchasing at Taxact, hopefully something like this will show up again.

Worked for me. I clicked on the offer I wanted, then started my return. Reviewed basic info, then stopped the return.

Then you just click on the shopping cart in the top right corner to see the 50% off rate in cart.

No Amex here but I believe last year Sam's Club had a $35 back or something similar. Agree, hopefully both offers back this year.

This worked for me as I had no "upgrade options" having chosen the self-employed version of TaxAct. Thank you, Flay!

I have the same issue as well. Discount doesn't reflects.
Try clicking on Shopping cart 🛒 button after you are logged in
Shows discounted price

shopping cart is correct, but the price in "my taxes" shows the non-discounted price. Generally the price shown in "my taxes" drives what they actually charge you at the end so hopefully they fix this shortly.

I guess this offer is only for people who do not file state tax, or do not need an additional software to file it (if their state has online filing).
This TaxAct offer costs $35 for Deluxe version ($12.50 Deluxe + 22.50 State), and right now it costs $24.99 for Deluxe + State from Amazon/Walmart/Newegg.

Agreed from my experience.

I use tax almost every year. They've denied me a screenshot discount that was not shown under the "my taxes" exactly like this. Ended up with a meh discount after a few chats

Is this deal applicable to desktop version as well?
