They will both give you the same calculations and credit verifications. The difference is if you like to see how your calculations are done and be able to view the forms, you will prefer our Desktop/Download software as it has both the Easy Step mode (interview) and the Forms mode availability. You can toggle between the interview and the forms. Our Online software does not give you access to the forms. It is an interview interface only. Clients who prefer answering questions and letting the software enter the information where it belongs in the return are more comfortable using this software.
