So I went back to my old reliable, TaxAct, to calculate my 1040. And it's a good thing I did. The amount I owed the feds was almost half of what TaxSlayer was saying I owed." That hasn't been my experience with TaxSlayer, now two years running. Nothing about advertisers' cookies, and the Federal return was indeed free. The state return was $9.95, but they were upfront about that. As to the amount owed, that depends entirely on the data furnished to them in preparing the return.
