Tax software?
I have basic taxes. No fancy stuff other than a few mutual funds. I want to use a tax program but file via mail, just put numbers in and print. I don't want to use the internet AT ALL for the process other than to update the software just prior to doing my taxes. I don't want any personal information going to ANYONE. The update obviously is not an issue. What is the cheapest best option. I've heard of TurboTax and Taxcut only. Also, what version? There seems to be a Premium, Federal, etc. version for some of them.

I used TaxCut the last couple of years for both federal and state. I only need the basic features/forms also. It does have the option of filing by snail mail. I used the online filling so I can get the money faster. This year I received the money in my checking account within five business days after filing.
Just get the version that says federal and state. Since you do not want to efile, dont get the version that says efile on the cover. |

I was asking a similar question "QuickTax or Ufile, In Canadians case", than my thread disappeared. However people have claimed that TurboTax is better than TaxCut.

That comparison is great. Thanks. Which one does Federal, State, deductions (donations, etc.), investments (mutual funds, savings account, etc.) mail via post office and costs the least? I need the exact name of the software and which specific one. I'm dumb.
Thanks! |

That comparison is great. Thanks. Which one does Federal, State, IRA contribution, gambling winnings/losses, deductions (donations, etc.), Real Estate Tax deduction for my coop that I live in (whether I take standard deduction or not), tells me what documentation to attach to tax forms to be mailed, investments (mutual funds, bank savings/checking account, etc.) can get any online updates prior to printing (without giving any personal info. online to get it), mail via post office and costs the least? I need the exact name of the software and which specific version. Also, it must do everything I mentioned. I'm dumb.

Tax Act and Tax cut are about equal in my opinion, used them both over the last few years. Using TAX ACT this year, DeLuxe State and Federal. From www.taxact.com 2nd Story Software. Cost me $19.95 direct from their site.
All tax software will give you Return printouts ready for mailing. |

Is that the least expensive that you think would do the trick for me?
