It’s tax time again. If you’re expecting a refund, you might look forward to doing your taxes, but the process itself isn’t exactly fun.

Whether you’re expecting a check from the IRS, or you owe the government money, Turbo Tax can take away a LOT of the stress of tax time.

I’ve used their online program for the last several years, and they make it pretty easy. That’s because the program walks you through a series of questions about your life to find out what deductions and forms will apply to your situation.

They’ll ask you for specifics when needed, and then calculate and fill out all of the forms for you automatically. I also like that when you use Turbo Tax from from one year to the next, they will automatically fill in the information from the previous year to save you some time.

If you’re missing any information you’re asked about, you can always come back to it. You’re also given a chance to review your information before it is e-filed.

There’s a place to ask questions about anything you’re unsure about along the way too.

And, if you’re in the military, you can get a discount or FREE tax filing from Turbo Tax too!

Here’s some other interesting information I found from Turbo Tax (and some “just-for-fun” stuff):
