I feel like this should have been released closer to tax season? Now the big filers will have 10 months to strategize and try to sabotage the use of this service before it hits their bottom line.
.
Obamacare website was launched at the beginning of the open enrollment window, and that was just a fraction of the us population. They now have 10 months to strategize how not to crash come April when every tax payer in the US trys to use this.
That was back in 2013, and frankly web dev has gotten a lot easier and a lot more robust at scaling since then.
They also learned from that catastrophic deployment, which is why they developed the USDS, the US digital services office, which pulls people in from startup and tech culture to guide these projects with modern practices for the executive branch.
The above is rolling out this exact service.
Another policy win for Biden.
Guaranteed it will be so convoluted and impossible to understand you will quit and just pay someone to do your taxes.
Usability comments were positive from what I recall reading. Seeing how TurboTax turns into a manually calculate everything yourself and good luck as soon as you step outside the normal workflow, the people that would use this just might. e.g. good luck filing domestic partner filing separately in California, no real examples to lure you into their shit higher price support tiers
Why are you talking about Intuit tax filling? This is the IRS.
Where did I use the word intuit?
He’s joking that you’ve just described TurboTax
Oh sorry.
Side note: any ideas of why I’ve got so many down votes? It seems odd.
