About Me: I own a home

"Great online tool for tax returns:
I was going to fill a paper return for my daughter, but decided to try an online tax return and picked Turbo Tax. I had never done an online return and was not sure if I could do it. They made it simple and answered all my questions as I gave the information needed.
This was a good decision and was easy.

(Pennsylvania)
Pros: Straight-forward, easy, and FRIENDLY
Cons: Didn't find any.....
"For those of us who are legalize-challenged, tax-shy, and who tend toward the display of anxiety and panic, Turbo-Tax soothes the tortured soul! Admittedly, my finances are very far from complex, but Turbo-Tax let me take care of the whole drama in one sitting. For anyone who is challenged (like I am), this is the way to go. Try it ... you'll LIKE it!"
