US Income Taxes - Income Tax Preparation Simplified for You (Udemy.com)

This courses was pretty 'to the point'/concise. There is something nice about having a human being with experience (on video) walking me through every single aspect of the 1040 tax return form. These forms are very 'busy' and even though I don't fully understand it all, I definitely feel more comfortable and less overwhelmed by taking this course. I'd love if this course was updated for 2026. This course was created over a decade ago and I'm sure some things have changed. Thanks :)

This course is outdated from 2014. If you want to learn the basic fundamental processes from filing and tax documents, the course explains well. But if you want the latest info and updates tax form and reports, this course is not worth it unless you wait for the 83% off discount on holidays which will worth $16.

The teacher doesn't appear to have any emotions. The delivery is very monotone and without any energy. All of the slides and documentation are from 2014, and I know from just a periphery understanding of the tax system that some of this information is outdated and inaccurate.

Amazing lady! She can speak, knows the material, has the perfect graphics to go along with everything, & you let her provide downloads for us! This is my second class with you, & the topic is the same. I planned to take both & hopefully work during the tax season. I'm glad I had to be irritated by a man who should've had someone else reading a script for him because he couldn't speak proper English and the transcript was all wrong. This class will take me the appropriate time, not three times as long! Just one point, and that's parts are dated. Perhaps they can be made evergreen: "The standard deduction for your filing status is adjusted for inflation. For example, in 2014, the amounts are..."

It was really detailed and point by point explained. However there is room for further improvement. You can present us with opportunity to solve a more wholesome examples ( covering ALL the line items of 1040) and then guide with answers. This will be specially effective with different iterations for different conditions. Thank you

A good course, but not updated for quite some time. The lectures are based on information from 2014 which in itself would be ok if there were no changes to the legislation. For example now form 1040EZ becomes obsolete completely. Still the course gives you a good direction of where to look for updated information. I would also appreciate more info for non-US residents for such a course.

I finally finish my class on income tax preparation I really enjoyed this class the instructor Maio was amazing i the class was very easy to understand and I had no problems learning this class .

After going through the various step-by-step lectures in which Dr. Jacinto walks through and explains the process of completing the income tax return, I feel that Dr. Jacinto has done a wonderful Job in simplifying a topic that may be overwhelming for most individuals. The course provided a great deal of pertinent information for completing a return and explained it in a way that the average person would understand. Dr. Jacinto also provided essential IRS publications and resources to refer to when completing a return. Before taking the course I was unaware of the free e-filing sources that can be utilized to file a return. Overall, I thought the class provided a lot of great insight and did a wonderful job dissecting form 1040. I would highly recommend this course to others. Income tax preparation is something that all individuals should have knowledge about, and this course provided an easy to follow step-by-step approach to help understand the process. Thank you Dr. Jacinto!

In this course, Dr. Majo Jacinto does a fantastic job of making the topic of preparing income taxes (which is often viewed as difficult or daunting by many) very enjoyable and simple. This course is comprehensive and easy to understand by everyone. I like how the course focused on all of the common income tax items that many of us face and Dr. Jacinto made all of these areas very easy to understand. Sometimes it is overwhelming to have to research tax forms, their instructions, etc. through the IRS website so I really enjoyed how Dr. Jacinto provided us with all of the IRS links to interactive tax guides to assist us in further detail when preparing an income tax return. Finally, I really enjoyed how Dr. Jacinto provided ways to file both the federal and state return for free using different tax softwares and even went as far as to show how easy it is to do on your own. Overall, I found the course very enjoyable and I learned a lot. I learned how to save money by filing on my own and I know this course will give everyone total confidence that they can easily file their income tax returns on their own.
