Meu Imposto de Renda vs Quicko

Meu Imposto de Renda lets individuals resident in Brazil prepare and submit annual income tax, estate, and definitive departure declarations to Receita Federal. People can file through its online service and mobile channels, or download a declaration program for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Access requires a gov.br account at the Prata or Ouro level. After filing, users can track processing and review pending issues if a declaration is held for review, then submit a correction when appropriate. Online and mobile channels do not cover every filing: some foreign income, capital gains, variable income, and auxiliary rural activity declarations require the desktop program. The service also lists personal data it processes, including name, address, date of birth, and CPF, and says it does not process sensitive personal data. It says personal data is not shared with other institutions except in the case of Simples Nacional, and that it makes no international transfers of personal or sensitive personal data. The service is free for citizens.
