"Just wanted to let you know, I used OLT for the first time this tax season and I couldn't be happier with the results. It's very thorough but yet easy to use.. Needless to say, I will be using OLT next year. Thanks!"

Charles W

"I got my state refund back in 6 days, and federal back in 11 days. Easy, honest and FREE! Thanks OLT, you are by far the best! I will be back next year and will recommend to my friends and family."

Paul D

"Just a short note of thanks for your excellent tax service! In the past I had always prepared my own tax reports, but decided to try your electronic route, which was very efficient & understandable. Very much appreciated."
