But I have used Turbotax for years and so it auto imports any relevant information from last year (like carry over donations). Being self employed I was also able to claim the cost of the tax software as an expense. So while there are alternatives I still appreciate when people post deals on the paid software. If it doesn;t apply to you then maybe point out alternatives (in case people don't know) and move on. But thanks Op for posting.

That's like back in the day saying "HOT! Income tax return booklets only $5 at Chapters" when they're free at the post office.

I'd say Wealthsimple Tax has an equal or better user experience as well.

Does Wealthsimple tax work if I have a business number / business CRA account?

It's possible TurboTax has a better wizard for this purpose or specific to ride-sharing (their marketing sure makes it sound like they do but...).

EDIT: here are their step-by-step instructions for how to fill in the T2125 if you're a rideshare driver. So I'm guessing maybe no wizard. Even if so, you can use these same steps for Wealthsimple Tax too and save your $27: https://turbotax.intuit.ca/tips/guide-u ... tners-7522



Definitely there's a switching cost but for me at least I'm not going to pay $25-50/yr. for the next three decades to avoid it forever.

CRA autofill also takes care of a lot of the past year info now so it's easier than it used to be to switch. Not sure if carry-over donations would be part of that but pretty much any carry-forward you can see on your CRA profile is.

Make a free account, see what it imports, in 5-10 minutes you'll know how easy it will be to avoid TurboTax next year for you.

Either way it was free. I just wanted to thank the Op because there are still people that use Turbo Tax, are okay with paying for it, and want to know about the discount. And used my own experiences (carries over information and is a tax write-off any ways).
