TurboTax

TurboTax is Intuit's flagship tax preparation software used by millions of Americans to file their federal and state income taxes. The desktop version allows users to prepare their tax returns offline on their Mac, with features like import of tax documents, deduction finding, error checking, and direct e-filing to the IRS. It's particularly popular among users who prefer working locally rather than using web-based tax software, and those with complex tax situations who want the full-featured desktop experience. TurboTax releases annual versions corresponding to each tax year, with the software including the latest tax law changes and forms.
