To check your refund status you’ll need your SSN, filing status and refund amount. This simple IRS tax app is to check on your tax refund status. This app is free to play with when you’re finished you’ll need the TurboTax SnapTax Filing Key to file for $14.99. But that wasn’t the case, which was disappointing, as it would be a fast way to load all of your data. I assumed that the return on the tax app would sync with my Turbo Tax account, so that you can use the picture function to load all of your W2s and 1099s. It offers an efile option and a paper file option. I tried to file one of my kids tax returns using SnapTax to see how it works. You can actually file a simple 1040EZ tax return using this app if you have no dependents and an income less than $80,000. Use your phone to take a picture of your W2 form. I downloaded every single tax app I could find. Of course, when I tell them I did this, they’ll remind me that the pure fact that I was checking out tax apps, will make me uncool and old. In my quest to appear young and cool to my sister-in-law and brother-in-law in their early 20s, I decided to download all the hot tax apps on my Android phone and see which ones are actually helpful for your tax preparation.

And that year has arrived the first tax filing app is now available! My husband’s younger siblings run their entire lives on their iPhones, so it’s only natural that the younger generation will also prepare their taxes on their smartphones.
