I was going to file my return when I realized I don't have a 1099-DIV. Last year I got some company stock for profit sharing and I got two checks totaling less than $3 for dividends earned.
Reading the form on the IRS site, it sounds like 1099-DIV are only sent if the amount exceeds $10, like 1099-INT. But they still say to report every amount. How am I to report it without the correct, exact information? Thanks
[end question]
I used TurboTax online since 2003 since it was free and easy (statetaxfreedom.com) until last year when my AGI was higher and it cost $75 for a simple return! I checked TaxCut and TaxAct, and TaxAct is by far the cheapest ($17.95). So I started my return there, and while the interface is nowhere near as nice as TurboTax, if you have a simple 1040A return like mine, it shouldn't matter.
So I haven't gotten as far as filing it, but so far it seems like a good alternative for those not wanting to pay so much. Any other experiences?
