Works well like previous years versions but be aware that the total of ordinary dividends are now entered in misc income rather than the difference between ordinary dividends and qualified dividends that has been entered in misc income in previous years This makes the app more straight forward but may confound those who used the workaround in previous years versions                     Nonna Urbizzness
i have used this app for a few years and this is the first time ever it was wrong I even messaged them on Facebook to tell them it was incorrect but they assured me it was up to date with the new tax reform I guess they got enough complaints and fixed it within the last 2 weeks but it s still off you also have to close the app and reopen it to get the correct refund amount otherwise it s the wrong amount until then new updated number was close to my refund amount but off by 600 dollars         Caroline Davis
Edit Since the newest update it will give the correct refund amount HOWEVER you have to enter all information it will give an amount that is roughly 2 000 less than it should be You then close the app and reopen it and it shows correct amount Have used this app for a few years and has always been accurate This year however it said I would be getting back 9 192 When i actually went to file my taxes i was told i will only be getting 6 927 That is an inaccuracy of 2 265     Stacey Hayner
I have always used this app to calculate my tax return This year the app is way off to the refund I am going to get Like another reviewer said by 2000 maybe need to recheck calculations and update Please I like using this app and recommend it to everyone because it has always been so accurate     Patricia Torres
I have had the taxcaster for the past 5 years and it has always been very accurate This year that is not the case This years taxcaster is very inaccurate around 2 500 off I m very disappointed I try to monitor my taxes closely to make sure I am having enough deducted and such so the big discrepancy this year was a shocker     Holly Bayus
I have much enjoyed this app over the past few years It has always given a pretty close to accurate estimate usually with in a couple hunderd dollars either way this year it was off by over 2000         Christina Koscielski
This calculator was right for the last two years however when we did it this time it made us expect a certain amount and disappointed us when we found that we were getting 2 000 less back than the calculator said             Sierra Waters
horrible app for this years tax 2018 tax payable 2019 app gave me a number that has alwayd been correct every year so I had planned around that number I fill out my taxes today and realise its 2000 off THATS NOT A SMALL NUMBER AND NOT OK I WONT BE USING TT AT ALL EVER AGAIN TO FILE     Shane S
this year the app calculated wrong my refund was 2500 less than it calculated and i did my taxes through turbo tax tis the first year this has happened i have been using tax caster for 4 years the past 3 years my refund was exactly what they calculated and it calculated everyone i know that calculated them also is getting back less than what ot said     Leanne Doyle
usually this app is almost exact with its estimations but this year when i put my info in it gives me an estimate and when i close and reopen the app the estimate is increased by 4000 i seen other reviews and answers indicate the 10 1 version is available but the app doesnt have an update the last update was november 2018     Robert Rivera
Refund estimate was wayyy off First it showed a really high number I knew couldn t be right but hoped Then when I went back in it was lowered I thought ok not bad went and filed and it was still off 2k disappointing Normally its pretty accurate I will Re Rate next year at tax time     Chasity Dill
Little better reading would nice But with enough stress and time it is easy to use Better then some other apps But not by much                     Robert Shirley
Its easy to use but I don t think its Correct I went to a tax office today and this said I was getting way more then what I really was             Stephanie Collins
I use this app every year u0026 it is always 100 correct However this year I was told a lower amount then what this app told me u0026 i was so disappointed to find out it was over 2 000 less that was owed to me         Eaze Money
I liked the app but it s been broken for months Not properly calculating child tax credits Don t rely on this info         Timothy Mortimer
I spent all day building an Excel model of my 2018 taxes then found this app It matched my calculations to the dollar I m now much more confident in my understanding of the new tax law                     A Google user
I ve been using this app to get an idea of my refund for years It is very accurate it s always 50 of my refund                     A Google user
Fantastic app I was able to see clearly how my income changes and the new tax law affects me kudos                     K W
First time using and was very very close Remember this is just calculating basic information not everything For us it was spot on                     John Castellanos
2017 tax return is long gone Having 2018 as a bonus is not good enough when 2018 should be THE only tax year people care about at this point When will this app be updated                 Dhimiter Vasili
it doesn t adjust the dependent allowance above the threshold otherwise very nice             Bahram G
trash app doesnt work want turbo tax back the original that is no longer compatible with any of my devices     Sarah Shaver
why is this app still saying 2015 details is it up to date On the top right corner its saying 2015 details instead of 2018             Johnny Padilla
NEEDS to be update The result is incorrect by a big difference     Seara Niravong

I use this and then went to HR Block and they gave me the same estimate So I decided to use turbotax to fill out the taxes for free and I SAVED 308 THAT HR BLOCK will charge me AND IN 1 WEEK my taxes were in my bank account Woohoo and for free U wont regret                 I love it It work for me and a save a lot
This app is easy to use and is accurate within a few hundred dollars Ive used it for a few years and its rarely off by 100 Use it because it works                 Works great And its FREE
Pretty accurate compared to last years return              Like how easy it is to use
I use the app to get an idea of where I stand before actually starting my taxes                 Easy to use
Easy to use and pretty accurate              Nice app
Last year I downloaded the turbotax app and took a pic of my tax return and it was filed now all I can find is a calculator and tracker     Confusedwhere do I actually file my taxes like I did last year
Was ok but i didnt like the sliders i would have prefered just to be able to punch in numbers       
Quick easy user friendly                 Awesome
It was only 9 dollars away from what I actually filed for                 Works great
The IRS is not a US Government Agency It is an Agency of the IMF Diversified Metal Products v IRS et al CV93405EEJE USDCDI Public Law 94564 Senate Report 941148 pg 5967 Reorganization Plan No 26 Public Law 102391 u00a0     there is simply no law mandating the payment of income taxes
I have a fairly simple return married and children my refund was 1 more than taxcaster said it would be                 worked for me
Tested the app with 2014 info and it came up with a number 1300 less than what I actually got back Uninstall     Way off
Told me exactly what I wanted to know                 Great
Since 2010 I used Never get an estimate or file with anyone else                 Da Best
Was only three dollars off our actual refund amount It is easy to use and understand                 Awesome accurate
Ive used the app a few years now and its always really accurate                 Pretty accurate
This didnt add in any child credits but I know Ill get them since I didnt make over the amount to get credits     Way off
Everytime I do my taxes they come back the same as it says                 On point
I qualify for certain tax breaks and exception as well as a certain bracket but this app recognizes none of that and does not allow an override of certain tax group settings     Worthless
Not sure of its accuracy yet Most reviews state accuracy within a 200500 error margin Edit two grand less than taxcasted App didnt help us much other than getting our hopes up        Easy to use
I used this app to estimate my 2014 taxes It was so user friendly as well as accurate After I got my estimate I went to a tax preparer and my tax refund was the exact amount I got from this tax estimater I am going to prepare my taxes myself next year with the help of this app                 User Friendly Accurate
Get ready its cause I am love this app              Wow
Very easy to use straight to the point                 Great app
Awesome app                
Gets better every year I just wish quickbooks pro worked as well as this Ill be studying for the enrolled agent exam and this app is very helpful in understanding how the mechanics of tax law works keep up the good work intuit wish quickbooks was this easy                 Great tax tool
Devs plz split the irapension distributions cell into 2 cells to facilitate easier modeling of different ira distribution amounts              Good for planning but could be better
I absolutely love this apppp                 It gives me the incentive to do my taxes
Easy and fast Like some girl I used to know Leslie Emery                
I have always used TurboTax and I have always been satisfied                 Loyal SATISFIED customer
Estimated 5200 soo Ill find out in a couple weeks how much I likeor dislike Feeling hopeful             
Always accurate so I can plan ud83dude00                
Projections work well but i wish when changing dependents too smaller number it would reset the ages                 Love the tool
Owner                
Very close to my actual refund amount Use it every year              Easy to use
This is the firts time I review an app and I truly believe is a very useful toolso I can calculate tax refund based on my anual gross and withheld federal tax This way I have better control of my expenses so im prepared at the end of the year for the best or for the worst                 Greatest app in my phone
This app was right on with my tax refund estiment Down to the dollar IT WASNT EVEN A 1 OFF I GOT BACK EXACTLY WHAT IT ESTIMATED                 EXACTLY RIGHT JUST LIKE EVERY YEAR
Two weeks before my scheduled date to have my taxes prepared I entered all of my w2 and credits information and received my estimate Basically dead on My actual federal return for 2014 was ONE DOLLAR MORE Seriously Only a dollar short Talk about accuracy Totally recommend for anyone wanting a pretty decent estimate on a general 1040 Although if you have an extensive itemized deductions list I would just wait to prepare them as this app likely doesnt offer every single deductioncredit possible                 Awesome
TaxCaster does just what it says it does and it does it fast Take a moment to enter your figures and in youll instantly have an accurate estimation Im able to look at my last pay of the year and find out what my tax situation is looking like I help several family members and coworkers file their taxes and this is a simple app I recommend to all of them so they know if theyll be getting a return and if so how much                 Extremely useful tax time tool
Completely wrong
