My first time using Colum Tax is 2025 and the experience is awesome! The software is easy to navigate and you have more options to deduction even filing a simply 1040. I love Colum It's awesome.

Do not use!
I filed my taxes through them this year because it was offered through chime and there were pretty good experiences on Reddit. The process was simple everything went thru says approved in IRS site. Nothing after that. I filed 1/21. It is 3/5. I have NEVER gotten my taxes this late. My return isn’t even a big one I don’t file anything special it’s simple. I contacted the irs they don’t even see anything on their end and mentioned that lots of people have been contacting them about filing through chime with column tax. I contacted column and just an automatic message with no resolution or update. 0/10 would not recommend.

Hi Tabatha - I'm so sorry to hear about your experience with your taxes this year. I hope you've already received your tax refund, but if not, I just requested additional information and I'm happy to follow up and look into this in more detail. You can also reach us at support@columntax.com if there's anything we can do to help. Thanks for sharing your feedback with us.
Errors on Forms and Obtuse FAQs = Unacceptable
Errors on forms ("City" when they mean "County"????) and conflicting answers in their FAQs have made filing this year a nightmare. Never again. I'll just go back to TaxAct

At first everything went smoothly
At first everything went smoothly: clear and simple guidelines and instructions. BUT! an error code popped up re: state return. Spent a lot of time trying to remedy the problem, but the message wasn't clear on how to resolve and there is no help available via bot or chat. Can you call Column Tax?? Sure, if you're the CEO's brother. The rest of have to email, then wait days for a response.

Liked the cost, really disliked the experience
I appreciated the lower cost and quick responses to emailed requests for help/clarification. However, the answers to my questions were often automated and unclear. For those who have an automatically rebalanced robo-advised account or who buy and sell stocks frequently, be aware that you will need to enter *every single* transaction as a separate 1099-B - very time-consuming! The instructions for this also aren't clear. I had to email twice for clarity. And other details were unclear too, like how to file as a nonresident of a state. I've used TurboTax in the past and really missed the ease of simply logging into my banks and brokerage through TurboTax and having information auto-populate. With Column Tax, be prepared to enter everything by hand. Not sure if I would use this again...

Got me a better refund than H&R Block did
I had gone in store to a local H&R Block and they had given me an estimate for a refund that was lower than what I got for filing with Column Tax. I did it early with them and they helped me get credits that I otherwise wouldn’t have. It was pretty fast too!

I filed early with Column Tax via my bank and it was a great experience. The process was really straightforward and support was great. Will definitely use them in years to come.
