Engadget giveaway: Win an iPad Pro 9.7 courtesy of TurboTax!
It's easier than ever to file, so there's no excuse to wait.
We always know the tax deadline's looming (it's April 18th, by the way), but many of us still procrastinate until the last moment, scrambling to the nearest tax professional. Luckily, Intuit's TurboTax for desktop and mobile can help you file your own return in minutes or apply for an extension. It's also free for basic returns. The mobile version lets you snap a photo of your W-2 so it can auto-fill the info for you and as you proceed through the step-by-step process, there are always helpful hints to clarify the mind-numbing legalese. If you run into any hitches along the way, the SmartLook feature lets you connect to an expert via one-way video for fast answers on the spot. You can even finish up on your desktop later if you didn't make it all the way through on mobile. If you need a little encouragement, TurboTax has provided two 9.7-inch iPad Pro tablets for a pair of lucky readers this week to help get that tax business out of the way. All you need to do is head to the Rafflecopter widget below for up to three chances at winning.
Winners: Congratulations to Michael M. of Avondale, PA and Kyle J of Altoona, IA!
