This is great for citizens!
I'm not sure they get bragging rights about a smooth site launch for a tax preparation application when most people don't even have their W2s yet...
We'll see whether this is another healthcare.gov when people actually try to use it, but this is a huge win for people who qualify.
can't use it if i got my health insurance through obamacare? -_- fucking bullshit
I don't think I'll ever be able to use it, since it doesn't list capital gains as a supported type of income
Unless that's also related to it being a pilot
No matter what is planned right now, if this isn’t a PR disaster but the opposite and all the direct filers are gleeful about it, I think it’ll be good enough publicity for them to broaden it to most any use case.
CPAs with a million times more insight may need to correct me there though.
Congrats, Americans! It's a long time coming but still a huge deal and I'm happy for you all 😁
For anyone who has filed with it, how much does this return differ from using a company? Is your total return the same or can a tax professional get you back a significant amount more?
You get as much back as you would if you knew what to claim.
I can’t wait until this is available in my state!
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
