TurboTax 2020 is NOW available
What is your comfort zone when it comes to taxes?
- Super comfortable – “Everything is already organized – my taxes are a breeze and I’ll have them ready well before the due date”.
- Somewhat comfortable – “Everything is organized, but I really do not want to miss any tax slips, or deductions, and I might have a question or two, but I know what I’m doing so I don’t need to go anywhere, I just need a little support”.
- Not comfortable at all– “I have my stuff – please take it, prepare my return for me, explain it to me, then file it for me. Thanks you very much. If I can do this without having to leave my house, that would be even better”.
TurboTax has you covered.
Our Live products are made available in two ways; Assist and Review & Full Service*, which combines the ease of use and technology of our software with a nationwide virtual network of credentialed tax experts (with an average of 10+ years tax preparation experience).
