Grab these last-minute deals on tax software for Macs before the April 17 deadline

Best tax prep software for Mac

With just two weeks left before this year’s April 17 filing deadline, finding the right software to get the job done can be paramount. For those who are self-employed or have a variety of investments, having the proper tools to import statements and double check for errors can save time and money. AppleInsider this week is rounding up a list of the top tax preparation software, along with where to find the lowest prices on download and boxed versions of each.

TurboTax

 

TurboTax software

A top choice due to its easy to use interface, TurboTax has a wide range of online and boxed software options available for tax year 2017. Simple tax returns (1040EZ/1040A) may qualify for TurboTax’s Federal Free Edition, but users needing more robust features, such as on-demand help from certified public accountants (CPAs) and enrolled agents (EAs), can opt for the new TurboTax Live option. Those who are self-employed or have investments and rental properties will want to choose the Premier or Self-Employed editions that are best-suited to your needs.

Ways to save
If you’re ready to get started on taxes and want to download the software right away, shoppers can save up to $20 on TurboTax products directly from Intuit. Amazon is also running exclusive deals on TurboTax downloads for Mac with prices starting at $29.99 (up to $25 off).

For those that prefer a physical disc, Amazon is also offering discounts on boxed versions of the tax prep software. Warehouse clubs, such as Costco and Sam’s Club, periodically offer coupons and rebates on boxed TurboTax software as well.

TaxAct

 

TaxAct tax prep software

TaxAct, an alternative to TurboTax and H&R Block, has expanded its product lineup to include five offerings: Free, Basic, Plus, Premium and Freelancer. TaxAct Plus, a popular option, is best suited for homeowners and investors, while the Premium Edition includes audit defense. TaxAct also offers free phone support and seven years of access to your tax return with a price lock guarantee.

Ways to save
TaxAct is currently knocking 20% off its Plus, Premium and Freelancer editions, bringing the prices down to $31.96, $55.96 and $47.96 respectively. At this time, TaxAct Online is Mac-compatible, while TaxAct download products are not.

Additional alternatives

There are several other tax prep tools on the market today. Credit Karma offers a free tax return service, but several forms are not included, such as multiple state returns and estate and trust income from Schedule K-1. TaxSlayer also offers five tax prep products, including a Military Edition that allows active duty military members to e-file a federal return for free. Neither are as robust as TurboTax, but they do offer an economical solution for simple tax returns.
