    If you think that your version of tax software does not calculate correctly, fill-up the same information on the online version of turbo tax or other online software and compare if the values are the same. if it is, then why pay more for any tax software if you can get the same value from free one and donate any amount. At the start compare with Ufile or turbo tax and one software that has a free version.

    Pay attention that some people have particular problems using the online version rather than the installed software. Suggestion is - always use the software because it’s much quicker, does not have any performance issues and you can play with different scenarios of income between spouses. Also check what version of Windows you have: 64 bit or 32 bit since some versions of software does not run in 64 bit mode.
