TurboTax Deluxe Federal Only review May 11, 2008
It's now about 6 weeks since I did my taxes, I can't remember a lot of details too well. My general impression is that it was pretty good. I bought it because it there was a Federal Only choice which happened to suit me. My state taxes are simple and I can do them manually without making mistakes. I liked TurboTax better than Tax Cut which I had used in 2005 and 2006.

I was favorably impressed by its ability to create a 1040X, which I needed as I received an amended 1099MISC after sending off my return the first time.

TurboTax seems to think you're always connected to the internet and always wants you to check for and download updates. I found this troublesome as I am paranoid about spyware. When doing taxes, I first physically disconnect the internet connection. On finishing the session, I ZIP archive the tax file with password encryption and delete the tax file itself before reconnecting to the internet.

Another thing is that TurboTax defaults to printing to Microsoft XPS Document Writer, whatever that is. Whatever it is, I can't use it. I would print to a PDF file and print that out. (I would not dream of filing electronically as I don't see how it can possibly be secure. Who knows what happens to it on its way to the IRS)

I advise you to select the pages you print, otherwise you'll waste paper. There's extra stuff you don't need like a page congratulating you for successfully completing your return.

I favor TurboTax because I have used it for many years. No reason to try anything else.

Turbo Tax April 11, 2008
The program was simple to use and seemed to be very thorough as it asked questions and directed me to different areas and tax forms based upon my data. However, there was a "glitch" with a 401K distribution. The amount was not listed properly. Otherwise the amounts and bottom line were exactly what H & R Block came up with. ( I was worried about the return and had it looked over.)
