As a side note, there is no income limit on the Free fillable Forms on the IRS website - but it's not available until January 26th.
I often use the Fillable Forms feature on the IRS website, but I'm tempted to get software this year just to step through a couple things I haven't done in several years.. but I'm not really sure it would save me any time. I certainly don't have enough taxable investment transactions to worry about that aspect. I do wish it included state E-File - that would actually save some time over having to retype it all into the state system.

I used Freetaxusa last year just to see how it was. It didn't seem as airtight as H&R Block's software. The process didn't vet my circumstances as thoroughly, nor guide me through specific steps. e.g. it asked me how I wanted to deduct my home office, but didn't offer any assistance in calculating my deduction when I said I wanted to go by the sqft of the office. I had to pull the numbers from the previous year when I'd filed with H&R Block. And it completely missed a couple deductions. I caught them when I compared against my previous year's return to see what the differences were, and I had to figure out a way to include them manually.
If your taxes are simpler (e.g. standard deduction), I can see the attraction. But if you're itemizing and/or have a schedule C, I think the peace of mind is worth the extra $25 or so.
$89.99 - $45 off w/ promo code NYAF373, limited offer
final price $44.99 plus tax.
By the way, the Business version is what you need for Estate and Trust tax returns.
