Blitz Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 I used TurboTax for mine. Went through quickly and no problems. There was a $20 something fee for the CA filing (I don't know if that's more or less than other places). Quote Link to comment

Jennifer Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 I did turbo tax (fed free but state was $27-29) first but then i owed state and only got $40 back, i put in the same info in h&r block (fed free & state $27-29 i forgot) and my refund was 470 and i didnt owe state, dont know what happened there. They are both pretty easy to do too and they show you how much you will get back while you enter your information, i got my refund in a week direct deposit. Good luck with what you decide to do.

Hyphy Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 ive been usin the same preparer for nearly a decade. Never had a problem and regularly get high returns and deductions i would never have thought of. Costs more than above, but i think its worth it. Quote Link to comment
drew510 Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 I have been using Turbo Tax for probably 10 years. Never had a problem. The first year I was a skeptical, so I got all the way up to filing and then went to H&R and they calculated the same return. Never turned back. Quote Link to comment
thisismatt Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Taxslayer.com or turbo tax online. Unless you're self employed or have other extenuating circumstances, there's no reason you can't do one of these. Quote Link to comment
pharouh Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 Turbo Tax. No problems and already got my return back. :) Quote Link to comment
Rob W. Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 My wife and I have used H&R for the last ten years never any problems and as mentioned it's nice to have someone between you and the IRS. Quote Link to comment
MikeRL411 Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 I do the home version of H&R Block. No sweat, very accurate. Updates before you begin are a PITA though. Also, they provide backup if you are summoned by the IRS once you succesfully file. The cost is a deductable if you are inclined or forced to go that way instead of taking the standard deduction. That said I am paranoid enough not to e-file [who is eavesdropping on my personal information?] so I file on paper. I also have the refund [if any] mailed to me. Why give the IRS your checking account number? I don't trust them not to audit my account. "Big brother IS watching you" even though 1984 has passed. Quote Link to comment
