Summary
TaxSlayer is a tax-filing software that, according to its many customers, is the highest rated for best value. It offers a myriad of tax products, each of which are designed to fit a varying range of customers, from active-duty military personnel to freelancers. You can even file both your federal and state taxes for completely free if you qualify for a 1040EZ form.
What You Get
TaxSlayer is a tax-filing software that’s surprisingly easy to use (especially with a step-by-step guide and simple menus), convenient (since you can file your taxes on your computer or even while you’re on the go), and allows you to file the form electronically for free.
TaxSlayer doesn’t only guarantee a maximum refund for you or you’ll get your money back (only for applicable TaxSlayer purchase price paid); it also has a 100% accuracy guarantee. If there are any inaccuracies, they will reimburse you any federal and/or state penalties and interest charges.
There’s even an option for you to file your taxes at no out-of-the-pocket fees, and deduct your TaxSlayer filing fees directly from your federal tax refund!
They provide a plan for every tax-filing need. For instance, if you’re a freelancer or a contractor, you will need to get the Self-Employed Plan which costs $47 (State filing will cost extra). However, if you’re an average salaried worker, then you will want to grab the Classic Plan which costs $24 only. Similarly, state filing will cost extra.
For customers who wants the VIP treatment, they can then grab the Premium plan which costs $44 with state taxes costing extra. This plan includes VIP support and access to a personal tax expert.
If you qualify for the 1040EZ, you can use TaxSlayer’s SimplyFree option where you can file both federal and state tax returns for completely free. If you’re an active duty military personnel, you can file a federal tax return, but not a state tax return, for free as well.
Terms
Their guarantees and refund policies all come with some fine print so be sure to read them thoroughly before committing to a plan. For instance, they will refund you if they did a calculation error but not if your tax return is rejected by the IRS due to some incorrect information.
Trustworthiness
TaxSlayer has a strict privacy policy which prevents it from giving away or selling your personal and financial information. Due to this, the company seems trustworthy.
Conclusion
If you’re looking for an affordable tax-filing software, TaxSlayer is a really good choice. It has a particularly good deal for users who want to file a 1040EZ form mainly because they can file a state tax return for free as well, a feature that many other tax-filing services do not offer.
