FAQ’s
How to Save on TurboTax with your Credit Card
Besides the deals posted above, you can often save an extra few bucks more when you use a qualifying credit card at checkout when paying for your TurboTax software. We recommend logging into your online account for your favorite card and seeing if they have an extra percentage or fixed discount when using the card for your TurboTax purchase.
For example, let’s say you have a Cash Back Discover Card. Most cards offer 1% to 5% back on purchases. But when you login to your online Discover Card account, be on the lookout for a rewards or offers sections for additional savings from TurboTax. We’ve noticed that many of the larger banks and financial institutions have teamed up with TurboTax this season to offer even greater perks when using a qualified card.
When’s this Year’s Tax Deadline?
You’ll have until Monday April 15, 2025 at 11:59PM your local time to file your 2024 federal tax return and make any necessary payments for taxes owed to the IRS. If you’re granted a tax extension then you’ll have until October 15, 2025 to file.
But with that said, if you’re anticipating a tax refund thais year then it’s probably a good idea to not wait until the last minute the file. That’s because the faster you send in your return then the faster you’ll receive any tax refunds owed to you.
Which Version of TurboTax Should I Choose?
If your tax situation is unusual and you’re not certain as to the version of TurboTax software to use, then you can always start with the lowest “free” version. That’s because the software will either way guide you — step by step — to the correct one to use based on the individual information that you provide.
