It’s tax season again. Which means refunds! Yay! But it also means having to actually do our taxes. Boo. We didn’t ask for this, and years of schooling certainly didn’t prepare us for it. But it’s not impossible, we swear! In fact, with the right service, we can feel like tax masters, and maybe even walk away with more money in our pockets in the end!

TurboTax Deluxe is turning tax season into our favorite season of the year. Almost 74,000 others who have left crazy-impressive reviews on the service feel the same. With this service, we can maximize our tax deductions and credits so that we can get the maximum refund possible when all is said and done. With step-by-step guidance and one-on-one help, we’ve got all the support we need to get through this with ease.

Reviewers are saying how helpful all of the explanations along the way were, letting them feel confident and stress-free while filing. One person said it was “simply the best” service for those who don’t know much about the tax world, calling it “so, so easy” to use. Another said it “couldn’t be simpler,” while others used words like “painless,” “fast,” “user-friendly” and, best of all, “great refund.”

TurboTax Deluxe’s deduction finder searches through over 350 tax deductions and credits and claims to offer the biggest refund possible for us. That’s the kind of confidence we like to see. Show us the money, baby!

Getting started with TurboTax Deluxe is as simple as a snap. Seriously, we can just snap a photo of our W-2 form to import the information into the system rather than typing it all up over and over again. We can also import a PDF of a tax return from a previous year even if we weren’t already using TurboTax! Switching is that easy.

Another great thing about this service is that once we do sign up, it will automatically transfer over our information when the following tax season hits so that we can save time that way, too!

So, even though TurboTax Deluxe might make things quick and easy, it would still be nice to actually understand just what it is we’re doing, right? That’s where their ExplainWhy tool comes into play. As we’re filing, we’ll receive personalized insights that explain what each update means, taking the mystery out of our own money.

Unlike going to an accountant, we can file our taxes at our own speed and in our own home without making an appointment or driving out to a crowded office and waiting in line. We don’t even need a credit card to get started. We can pay right out of our federal tax refund instead!

TurboTax Deluxe covers more than just the basics. Have concerns as a homeowner? Going to school? Not sure what to do about charitable donations? It’s all covered in Deluxe. TurboTax doesn’t want us to miss out on anything, which is why it runs a CompleteCheck before we finish filing. This comprehensive tool ensures that nothing was missed or improperly completed, walking us through any applicable changes before giving us the go-ahead.

When we’re all finished with our federal tax return, TurboTax can transfer our information over to our state return if we choose so we can finish everything up even quicker. Regardless, TurboTax works to get us the fastest possible refund. We can receive our refund any way we want, whether it be by check, direct deposit or to a Turbo Prepaid Visa Card.

Feeling a little worried about filing online? Don’t! TurboTax takes security into account for every step of its processes. Multi-factor authentication, Touch ID, email notifications and data encryption are just four safeguards keeping our information private. We also have full access to our security settings so we can see our device history to make sure everything looks as it should. TurboTax also has a dedicated security staff whom we can contact if we notice anything suspicious.

So, who’s ready to get filing? This process actually becomes pretty exciting once we actually understand what’s going on, especially when that refund comes through. Shopping trip, anyone?
