Comments on TaxACT 2008 Ultimate Bundle for Desktop
I've been using TaxACT since it was created many years ago. However, last year the program omitted one crucial element – interest! I pointed Second Story Software as soon as I realized the flaw. They seemed not to care. No upgrade or patch has been proposed. This year I'm going to a different program. It may cost more, but hey, even if they do not care, I do!

Follow-up review to my initial review. I changed my opinion a good to NOT USE! Yes, TaxACT is cheaper than the competition – but sometimes you get what you pay. Although TaxACT is not as friendly as other packages, if you're an experienced tax preparer you should not have too many problems to use the software. However, if you lack experience using software tax preparation, or have little experience of preparing your own forms, you will be better served by using one of Intuit products. However, the reason I give this product a low rating for its TED. I completed my return, quadruple checked to verify all information has been entered correctly – TED my claim and printed copies. A few days later I received an email that my EDP was rejected by the IRS because of "differences" Number SS my wife and date of birth. So I checked the printed forms and all the data I entered TaxACT. Everything was entered correctly. I compared my 2007, 2006 and an earlier statement. MATCHED ALL NEW! TaxACT So I called and they immediately tried to blame me. When I repeatedly explained that all information matches, then they claimed I had to check with the IRS – the IRS rejected the PDD. So I called the IRS. The Social Security information that the IRS uses comes straight from the Social Security Administration, therefore, as contended by the IRS, there is nothing they can do, and I would have to verify the information from the SSA. I called the Social Security Administration, explained the problem. They said because he wore the number for my wife, my wife had to call. She called and they told her she should go to the local office with proof of identity. So my wife had to take a day off work (lost wages !!!!) to go to the local Social Security Administration to verify that in fact, the SSA had the CORRECT INFORMATION! The Social Security Administration has the right information. The IRS draws the info directly from the SSA. The information I have entered with TaxACT is 100% correct. Rsolved problem? So I TED new (and now I will be charged again for the filing of State – another question) What happened? Again, the form was "rejected" by the IRS due to incorrect SSN & infor birthday for my wife. To make matters worse, according to the state (NJ) all information is correct – but because my taxes was rejected on the federal level, the Sate TED must reject it. The only reason I was TED TaxACT claims that if you efile and use direct deposit, you will receive your refund within 10 days. TaxACT also states that if you efile, you can not mail in your taxes. Had to call the IRS again to know what to do. According to the IRS, I can always send in the statement "paper" because the TED was rejected. In addition, because the IRS and the SSA has the correct information on file, the IRS said it is definitely something wrong with the Software (TaxACT) prevents ASD specific. So far, this software cost me more than if I had bought a more expensive packages. I can guarantee I would not use TaxACT again. I will be spending extra money and purchase a package that forms funtions correctly!

This is a statement about the seller more than the product. They charged me $ 5. 95 for the type of expedition, but the product arrived in the mail. I doubt that cost $ 5. 95.

TaxACT 2008 I bought for functionality FAFSA, but it was not worth it. Walked into my return in TaxACT and ended up owing $ 800. Then ordered TurboTax-good old days do return again, and was reimbursed $ 300. I know I'll stick with Turbo Tax next year, it is easier to use and seems to be more thorough.
