Unfortunately, yes... I've tried to move away, but found the other tools were lacking - at least with the level complexity of my taxes. I was *very* hopeful for Credit Karma's tax product as they generally make a very good product. That is why Intuit bought Credit Karma. They were forced to divest the tax part of CK. Which is of course what Intuit wanted - CK to not do taxes.

And now Credit Karma’s tax software is at the helm of Cash App/Square/Block, and I’m afraid that going anywhere besides TurboTax may make it a pain to retrieve my records (tax forms, namely). Just look at the complaints around Cash App Taxes to understand. Another example: my partner used software other than TurboTax and now their tax work from three years ago can’t be retrieved without paying an “archive fee”. And going through the IRS’ website is horrible to return a transcript. TurboTax offers the most consistent and reliable software, but they are scum. I wish it was easier to go elsewhere. Many people want to mindlessly submit their taxes and be able to retrieve them from one main hub at any time, and TurboTax is unsurprisingly the go-to.
