Tax softwares were unacceptably bad this year. Of the two major companies, one wouldn’t accept a standard IRS form pdf upload, the other couldn’t read a standard 1099 issued by a top 3 brokerage and I had to enter 100+ trades manually, 5 webpage click throughs per trade.
I’m lucky I am probably lowkey autistic since repetitive copy pastes and attention to detail are kind of soothing to me and I have the time to check this garbage software.
But it shouldn’t be this difficult. I can’t imagine how many costly mistakes are made by people who hate spreadsheets and record keeping and don’t have the time to be careful.
It’s way past time to get rid of all self reported taxes my dudes 🤙
