H&R Block TaxCut Premium + State

The best value! – all in 1 place at 1 price.

H&R Block TaxCut + State + Efile is a great package with a comprehensive interview process and a fair price. TaxCut wins points for simplifying their package purchase process this year. Now you simply choose the program you want - Basic, Deluxe, Premium, Home & Business, then add your State or Efile if you want them. You're offered one version for federal returns, then decide whether to buy state return software and prepay for your e-filing fees.

08 TaxCut + State + E-File costs $60; Premium + State costs $30; and Premium (for federal returns only) costs $20.

The TaxCut CD-ROM initially takes longer to install than the previous versions, but then again their adding to the software every year.

When I was ready to e-file, TaxCut asked for a key code that is on a sheet of paper in the box, or on the back of the CD-ROM sleeve.

You can import last year's return from TaxCut or TurboTax which can save a lot of time and effort.

The interview process is similar to that of the online version--comprehensive, with links to clear explanations.

Another great bonus is the will-creation software package WillPower, which is bundled with TaxCut.

H&R Block TaxCut Premium + State + Efile is generally solid and well-priced (and the included access to HR Block tax pros for one free question will appeal to those seeking a bit of the human touch).

Strengths: Easy import of previous years, supports imports from other tax programs, deduction calculator finds TONS of deductions I miss, and I know what I am doing.

Weaknesses: No longer a free e-file so either buy this version with e-file included for both federal and state, or pay later.

Overall Evaluation: HR Block Tax Cut + State + Efile is great software. Not only does it make doing your taxes easy, but it helps you to get a greater refund check! Also, if you ever run into problems, "you've got people" in H&R Block ready to help when you need it.

I have been a loyal TaxCut user for many years now - and I have been more and more impressed with every year's new version. One year I thought I would save some money by buying TurboTax on sale and I regretted it immediately.

TaxCut lets you quickly switch back and forth from the 1040 and GUI. I normally buy the Federal+State version and just mail in my forms to save the money, but I got a good price on this e-file version this year and was eager to try it out since I already have an adjusted W2. I am happy as always.
