Questions about TaxAct codes

Can I combine TaxAct promo codes?

Yes. Active-duty military file a federal return free when they enter an eligible military Employer ID Number.

Can I pay for TaxAct with my refund?

Yes. Online filers can have fees deducted from a federal or state refund if they choose direct deposit and the refund covers the fees with $50 to spare.

Can I get my money back from TaxAct?

Prices are usually lowest at the start of tax season in January, and TaxAct also runs offers before the April deadline and during extension season.
