STIS: I've used TaxAct for like 15 years, and it's never been more than $10-$20. Now they want $75. What tax software is everyone using?

(that is in the $10-$20 range?)

I started with the free taxact version, but because we started an HSA this year, I have to fill out a form (8889) that they're saying I need to "upgrade" to the $75 version.

the Y had tax prep folks from AARP do it free -- nm - zeitgeist Apr 2, 12:51
If you itemize, remember to take the deduction for the cost of the software. -- (link) - ReluctantCynic Apr 2, 12:45
I just use the free fillable forms through the IRS website. -- nm - znufrii, definitely not 40 Apr 2, 12:21
TurboTax or TaxSlayer just fine -- nm - budice Apr 2, 12:21 2
- Looks like TaxSlayer is $22. TaxAct is $37 for their online version. (I guess the desktop version upgrade is $75) -- nm - JaxSean Apr 2, 12:38
- TaxAct too, im the same way. Free or 20 bux at most -- nm - budice Apr 2, 12:29
I didn't have to, weird. -- nm - Tim Apr 2, 12:20 1
- On TaxAct? Did you have to file that form I mentioned? - JaxSean Apr 2, 12:39
