How to Choose The Right Tax Software For You
By Don Kransteuber

 

 

If you already use some form of personal financial management software such as Quicken or Microsoft Money then it is worth buying tax software that is compatible with this and can incorporate the figures already entered into the financial software. This will obviously help save you time and effort and remove a lot of duplication of entries.

The first step in finding the best tax software to use is to check the reviews in computer magazines and on websites to narrow down your choices. It is important to compare the features and the prices of the tax software as the most expensive ones do not necessarily have all of the options that you may want. Another point to consider with the cost of the tax software is that there are different charges for their online filing which can vary considerably.

There are many different brands of tax software available. A good tax software program will make preparing all of the forms easier and will save you a lot of money instead of hiring the services of a tax preparation specialist or other tax professional. However, if your taxes are basic, you probably won't save that much time by doing them electronically with tax software. It is important to check if the tax software program generates state tax returns or if you have to pay extra for state income tax software. Often you need to buy the deluxe version of the tax software to be able to file both forms but the added benefit of this is that these will include many additional features such as tax advice, IRS publications and other information along with accurate form preparation.

You may not necessarily need to buy a specialized tax software program as there are a lot of services available on the internet that allow you to prepare and file your return from their website for a small fee.

It is essential that you ensure that your computer meets the minimum system requirements of any tax software program that you download or buy. It is also worth investing in a printer so that you can make a hard copy of the forms that you file, even if you file them electronically over the internet. Also make sure that you use the current version of a any tax software program as it changes every year along with tax laws. Most tax software will allow you to upgrade quickly and easily. Remember that you might even be able to deduct the cost of your tax software from your federal income taxes so it is worth spending a little more to ensure that you have the best.
