Credit Karma tax program?

[katie]

Has anyone used Credit Karmas tax filing program? Its supposed to be 100% free, just wondering how they stack up to other systems and if they provide refunds in a timely manner

I always compare refund amounts by entering same info into TT and H&R. They are always showing a refund difference of at least $100 for me. This year, TT was saying my refund was higher than H&R, but each required upgrades during the process if I wanted to add my self employment expenses, so both wanted over $100 in the end. CreditKarma allowed me to do everything I needed to without “upgrades”, and the refund amount on CreditKarma was the same as the one showing in TT, so I used CreditKarma for the 1st time this year. Filed and accepted same day.

After TurboTax trying to sneak in upgrades for basic tax return information (dependents and student loan payments) I just filed with Credit Karma. It was easy and I refused to pay TurboTax $40 for something that should have been easy and free to do.

This is my third year using them, always get my return in a timely manner and it’s super easy to navigate as well! Best of luck!

I used them this year and my federal and state have both been accepted already.
