I am looking to get a tax program to file my personal taxes
this year and would like to get one that is specific to
railroad workers. Railroad workers do not pay social
security taxes, they pay railroad retirement and contribute
to their pension. On my W2 form the boxes are different than
most programs fill in format. Any help would be appreciated.
