With regard to the carryover year to year - I think it depends on your level of tax knowledge. If you don't have much, it's very easy to miss something, especially if you just import and then follow the guided interview. As an example, TT correctly filled out and carried over information on form 8606 for me for about 10 years before I even knew what that form was for.
It is like having your car recalled but refusing to tell you what the problem was and what was fixed.

Open Tax SolverThe other one, opentaxsolver, does not even have a version for the current tax year.
Neither of the software packages have any kind of real following or reviews. Have you confirmed these safe some way before linking them?
Thanks but no thanks. I'd advise anyone to stay away on something as critical as your taxes. Be better to just do them on paper yourself if your don't want to spend the $23.
Your tax filing will remain in your computer and be accessible through the program.

Really think none should just be plugging in numbers without knowing what the overall tax situation is. Can get away with that if you are just getting a W2 but we may be doing ourselves a disservice.The hard work of taxes is not filing but is keeping records and knowing of and researching for strategies to save on taxes. Tax filing software is one of the easier and quicker parts of the process. I paid a tax guy at one time but after stating to do my own taxes I realized that he did not advise me of many things that could have saved me money.

The software handles the math complexity and it is not a concern for me at all. Individual taxes are not really that complex. Even mine with multiple businesses and investments of every sort are not that bad.
A just get them done mentality can cost you millions over a lifetime. The things you need to do and think about are not all that complex and are not on tax form till year end.
Your taxes are not done when you file a 1040 form it is only a calculation and remittance of what you owe in taxes for the previous year. The important and maybe a bit more complex than filing in a return is what you did or did not do with your money in that previous year. Your tax situation is living and breathing thing that is affected by what you do with your money during any given period and it is never done.
You may find that you made a horrible mistake if you wait to tax time to find out. If you just file a form at year end and think you are done you are setting yourself to lose money by way of paying more taxes than you need be.That is the knowledge I am stressing as necessity if you want to get a bit ahead of the game.
Some of this government doing.The refund game they play with those that get W2s is a brilliant and slick psychological one to get as much from the taxpayer as possible and have that taxpayer walking away thinking they won.
The file it and forget it taxpayer pictures they have won somehow by getting something back when they got nothing back at all and just paid more than they had to. The once year fill in the the form and get it done taxpayer has ignored information and resources that could have saved them thousands and ignored ways to pay much less .
People say they got money back when that is not the case and they may have been able to cut a tax bill in half or more. Paying attention to their overall tax policy, finances and your personal tax picture is where focus should be, April 15th is easy in comparison. We do note need to know the whole intricacy of the whole tax code but it means we must think about finances some if you do not want to end up poor. Some reading and research is all that is needed.
That is what I am talking about when I say you must understand your taxes if you do not want to play a suckers game. In today's world it is easy to do what I advise if people would just take the time to investigate the tax code and its opportunities. There are millions of resources and sites that can help do that and that was not always the case. Used to be kind of secrets to the upper-class that had accountants and lawyers but with some common sense it is all very DIY now.
Taxes should be generally easy if you have the basics of financial literacy down. You shouldn't be worrying about filing in a form as that is easy the easy part but be worried and concerned about your overall financial and tax situation and how that plays out during any given year or years as it can cost great sums of money.
You can't always fix things have been overlooked when it comes time to file the 1040. I can't tell you how many people i know or have heard that have taken 401K withdrawals or did not sign up for one and pay very significant costs. Tax time is the easy part the rest of the year is where the care, work and research should be done.
Non-related, I see that I purchased a 1gb SD card in 2006 for $65. That's like $101 adjusted for inflation. Amazing.
