What users are saying

1. The only thing that I missed was being able to import my previous years data from my drive, to prevent having to re-enter some of the redundant information.Pros: it was 100% free for both state and federal, including e-file.

2. My friend uses Turbo Tax and said there is a free option but I did not see it listed.Update 2021: it worked great this year.

3. App owner needs to fix this ASAP or you're going to lose a ton of clients Update didn't fix the issue.This is an obvious issue due to the other reviews saying the same thingUsed the app in the past (for the free version) with no problem.

4. Usually it's great! This year I start and choose the free option and the screen goes blank.

5. It's all good though, I was able to file with credit karma for free and got the same results without the surprise payment at the end.I use this app every year to file.

6. H&R Block listed a free option and after clicking on the upgraded option to see what it was about, it would not let me go back to choose the free option which I didnt like.

7. Or allow you to remove unneeded services when your done.I've been using H&R Block for years, so its always been fairly easy to file with them online.

8. Thanks!I dont appreciate being tricked into upgrading for "free" and being charged for it after finishing my tax return.

9. I try to use the free version again, press next, and it continuously sends me back to that page with a message on top asking if I'm sure about my choice.The app wasn't horrible to use.

10. Otherwise it was easy to use and had helpful info along the wayPreviously I always purchased my software from Walmart and wasn't confident that this Chromebook version would be comparable.

11. hint, dont claim to be free and upgrade for $0.00 dollars only to surprise me at the end.
