    Love the app! It has always been on point and matched to what I am actually getting back and it only takes 2 minutes to do. Easy and reliable for those who do the easy form and want to know what they are getting back ahead of time.
  • Incorrect Tax %

    The actual tax % is different than the actual turbotax filing. On taxcaster based on my info it used a 12% tax rate versus a 13.8% when actually filing. So Taxcaster projects a higher return than what is actually available.

    HOH SD is not $16,100 with 2 child dependent ($22,500) and the Childcare payments are not subtracting from the tax liability.

    Tax calculations for 2024 are materially different from AARP calculations AND IRS worksheet(Qualified Dividends and Capital Gains Worksheet)
  • Is this a joke?

    Do you perform any testing on these updates? Your math is wrong. ‘Total Federal Tax’ - ‘Payments/Withholdings’ = ‘XXX (Wrong Value)’
  • Recent update is not calculating correctly

  • Total Federal Tax in Review

    In addition to the dividend issue it also seems to be not properly recording the total federal tax in the review section. I am guessing the total tax due is accurate? My work around for qualified dividends is to add them to long term capital gains. Always had to add non qualified dividends to the interest section anyway but maybe next year you could add another line to enter them?
  • Dividend income causing taxes to go down

    This has been an amazing 5 star app for over a decade. I have referred it to many of my friends. HOWEVER- the 1 star review is just my attempt to alert the developers that the most recent version has a SERIOUS ISSUE with respect to handling of dividend income. The more dividend income I put in the lower my taxes become. I’m not sure which “update” caused this blow but it seems to be a very recent issue. I have relied on this app to estimate my taxes for the past 10+ years and it has been absolutely amazing. I would happily pay for this app if it is working properly. It’s that good. But right now it has a SERIOUS ISSUE and this appears to be with how it is handling dividend income. The more dividend income I report the lower my taxes become. Developers PLEASE FIX THIS bizarre bug and thank you for what has been an incredible app.

    The 2024 update doesn’t work. I put in four categories of income, and it does not include all of them in telling my total income and tax liability. In addition, it’s very difficult to enter data in certain fields. You can only enter one digit, or cut and paste multi digit amounts into the field. But you can’t enterany quantity greater than nine dollars by typing it in directly.
