Hello, I am currently using ATX Software and am looking to see if I want to change tax programs, would like to dowload 2020 Pro Series Tax Preparation Software to “check” out your tax program. I have used ATX for about 20 years but they are insensitivie to customer’s needs and its so very hard to connect with them during tax season to get answers, so am checking other tax prepareation programs. Do you have a 2020 model which I can download to review program to see if I would like to purchase 2021 version? I process about 300 returns annually and most are e-files, also looking for e-sgnature and on-line e-sign capacity plus up to date customers services which will make it easier for tax customers to have thier taxes processed.
