H&R Block TaxCut 2007 Premium Federal [OLD VERSION]
Review
In past years I have used either one of the popular Tax prep programs.
I preferrd TaxCut because they treated me better on my Mac.
This is the first year the basic (+) program came for both Mac and PC.
Years ago I used Virtual PC to avoid the overpriced Mac version. With the PC it was a nuisance to move my Intuit Tax program (the competition) to my daughter’s PC,
where I visited (Intuit was obviously concerned about multiple use, but they lost me as a customer because of this ecperience.) -
I don’t need more than the basic program’s features.
They worked fine for me in TaxCut.
Past years I used to do my state taxes on paper (using excel) avoiding the extra charge for a state version.
This time I became so frustrated (house sale and move) that I gave in ordered the state editions for AZ and CA ( each, ouch!). I am glad I did.
I will probably buy TaxCut again next year unless they change their delivery mode.

TaxACT 2008 Standard for Desktop
Review
Our office is a sole proprietorship. When our accountant retired, we embarked reluctantly on a tax filing adventure. The relevant IRS and NYS literature were studied. The IRS instruction booklets were not always elucidating. Its like being given a set of directions for a circuitous road trip while the purpose of the trip and the final destination remained opaque. The IRS publications were more helpful as well as the IRS agents at (800) 829-1040 when there was a procedural question. The returns were first done with paper and pencil.
Quick simulations were done online, via the “try for free”option with TurboTax Free edition, TurboTax Deluxe, TaxAct Standard and TaxAct Deluxe to get a feel for the lay of the land. The Turbotax Free edition has the same set of tax forms as the Deluxe, but the former will permit the filing of only the simplest of returns. That was not the case with TaxAct Standard. A moderately complex return can be done with this basic version. The graphic design of TurboTax is more appealing and the guidance is more extensive and explicit. TaxAct Deluxe includes the online book, J.K. Lasser’s “Your Income Tax Guide”, Donations Assistant, Capital Gains Summary, Depreciation Summary and free phone support. TaxCut was not explored because the offers at Amazon Marketplace for the Turbotax bundle on a CD-ROM were better than for TaxCut. There is almost no importing with TaxAct Deluxe. The Deluxe version will only import prior year’s data from the same type of product; no importing between the desktop and the online versions. TaxAct Standard has no importing capability at all. Standard will not generate a pdf file of the returns while Deluxe will. A pdf file can be produced, albeit more slowly, with a scanner. The Support Center of TurboTax’s website is more comprehensive and better organized. They have their own forum. The Audit Support Center is a primer of how to handle IRS audit letters. The last three items can be used without charge.
TaxAct Standard and state were downloaded and copied to a CD. The Q & A Entry method has been suggested for less experienced filers while knowledgeable filers can use the Form Entry method. Both methods can be used simultaneously. A split screen opened up with the interview questions on top and the corresponding form, with populating responses and calculated numbers, on the bottom. A tab on the lower half screen would take the filer to the pertinent IRS instructions should a question arise. A link to IRS publications is also available. The filer can also toggle to the online book if they have the Deluxe version.
TaxAct Standard generated a 1040 with Schedules A & B, C (Profit or Loss from Business), SE (Self Employment Tax); Form 1116 (Foreign Tax Credit); Form 6251 (Alternative Minimum Tax); Form 8606 (Non-Deductible IRA’s); NYS IT-201 and forms for estimated federal and NYS taxes for 2009. After the intensity of the federal return, the state return was relatively easy. More than half of the federal data was transferred to the state return. The returns were previewed , printed and scanned. As our accountant had electronically submitted our returns in the past, we were quite comfortable with e-filing. A reassuring email from TaxAct stated: ” The Desktop version of the program creates a return or returns on your computer and does not interact with our servers in the process. Therefore we would not save a copy of any returns you create on our servers. If you choose to efile, we also do not keep a copy of the efile on our servers as we just pass the efile directly to the IRS.” In fact should an online filer lose a backup copy of a prior year’s return, 2nd Story will charge .95 for the retrieval service. One last update was downloaded just before e-filing. The IRS acceptance of the e-file came in 9 hours and that for NYS arrived in 15 hours. EFTPS and the NYS website were used for tax payments. Except for the paper copy, it was an electronic process.
For folks who are experienced filers with no state income tax, the TaxAct Standard desktop edition and e-file are both {BestCustomerReview}. (You folks are a bunch of lucky pups.)
For experienced filers who need to file one state return and are not queasy about doing the returns online; it’s .95 for the state return with e-file. If you are uneasy about online returns; download both software and send the state return via regular post to avoid the additional .95 for state e-file; but it’s almost that amount for large envelope postage plus certified mail with return receipt. The third option is to download TaxAct Standard for the federal return; do the state return by hand, especially if your state instructions have a diagram for the transfer of 1040 items to the corresponding lines on the state return, then send the state return via the postal service. With the last alternative the only payee is the USPS.
There is no need to order the CD’s and pay .95 for shipping and handling, unless the internet connection is very pokey and a CD burner is unavailable.
For filers who prefer more robust guidance and snappier graphics; TurboTax Deluxe Federal + Federal e-file + State from Amazon Marketplace seems like a good choice. These days the bundle is running about with shipping. It’s another .95 for state e-file.
The trek through Taxland was a bit grueling; but for the price of .90, complaint would be crass.

TurboTax en Espanol 2002
Review
Feature
Overview
TurboTax en Espanol guides you through preparing and filing your taxes quickly and easily. The EasyStep Interview process guides you through your return step by step, then double checks for errors and overlooked deductions. Information can be instantly imported from your Quicken or QuickBooks program (2001 or later) and quickly transferred from last year’s federal return. You can even file your return electronically.
The software also allows you to retrieve and input your wage, mortgage interest, and investment data with instant data entry by automatically retrieving W-2 wage data, 1098 mortgage interest, and 1099 investment data from participating employers and financial institutions. It then enters the data in the right forms, reducing manual data entry and simplifying tax preparation.
TurboTax Basic also helps you identify entries that could trigger an audit. Audit Alerts check your return for items that might raise a red flag with the IRS, and provide information on key documents you should keep. In addition, TurboTax Basic helps you make the most of the changing tax laws: it is up-to-date, with all the latest tax law changes. Note: This is a Spanish language version of TurboTax.
