Is there a particular problem with the software used by tax professionals? Clearly they're not using consumer-focused software since their needs would be different.
It seems like a domain a developer typically wouldn't have much insight into without a tax professional talking about it openly, or having worked on a product previously.
- ecolner 12y agoTax pros care about speed even more than consumers, but I'm not sure there's a problem with that. It's just a different mindset.
- scrabble 12y agokdragon's post seemed to indicate that he's aware of problems on the professional side and has ideas on how to fix them. I was curious about that. I find it odd that there are no free online tax filers in the US? TurboTax has a free version in Canada, and some competitors do as well. I like the idea though. Tax filing can always be made easier.(nevermind, a quick search shows that both TT and H&R have free filers.)
