Is Canadian tax software recommended for U.S. tax filers?

Canadian tax software would not be recommended for U.S. tax filers as the tax laws between the two countries are entirely different. It is possible that the forms would be very similar, however, U.S. tax software will include credits, deductions, and taxes that are relevant to the U.S. while Canadian tax software would comply with Canadian tax rules. I would not trust them to be 'up to par' with the federal regulations outside of their country of origin.
