Money Best Tax Software for 2016 Returns?

BWillie · 03:48 PM

I'm ready to stop giving a tax service $1500+ to do my taxes. It's too much of a racket, they're not always done right anyway. I'd like to attempt to do them with software this time. Other than it just being a pain in the ass, what other advantage is there to use a tax service? The shitty ones don't even use certified accountants anyway.

The software I've heard most about is obviously Turbo Tax. I'm not looking at the most basic tax software like Tax Slayer or Tax Act or whatever. I would probably need at least the Turbo Tax Home & Business. I have rental properties, lots of home interest to deduct, gambling income but I file as a pro (which seems to confuse everybody & nobody has ever done it the same), technically small business income w/ probably very few deductions (do not have an LLC even though live in KS so I'm probably a dumbass), used an HSA. Hopefully using a tax software will easily help me find deductions etc.

So, what do you guys believe to be the best tax software to use?

Turbo tax?
H&R Block?
Tax Act premium?
Jackson Hewitt online?
Any others etc
