H&R Block At Home 2009 Premium Federal + State + eFile
I’ve used Tax Cut for 3 Tax seasons now & It is truly easier to use and a cut above the other Tax programs. I purchased the premium version & I imported last year’s return in about 2 clicks. I plan on e-filing again & this copy allows users to file up to 5 e-file returns. I own my own business and the schedule C interview makes depreciation schedules and legit deductions a breeze. Also, there is a built in audit/review feature that will help you “tweek” your tax return and Q.C. before sending it to the IRS. I downloaded this 2009 version on the web using road-runner a 5 minute download which results in FREE SHIPPING. A Highly recommended purchase – used to pay my CPA over $[...] bucks for this same service. Hope this review helps & builds confidence if you’re considering this product ! [...]

This program was very easy to us, and it was surprisingly easy to go back and change things after half filling it in. I filled out most of the form long before I got my W-2 and 1099s, and going back was no problem. When going back in the form, the only thing I recommend is using the tabs to go to the right section (“Personal”, “Dependents”, “Income”, “Adjustments”, etc.) and then clicking on the “Go To” link for the _summary_ of that category. This allows you to hone right in on what you want to find; it’s easy to get stuck in the linear input process if you don’t use some direction.
The biggest problem was that you have to find the “key code” that comes with this version of the program, allowing for 5 free e-files. All the in-program help said that if you downloaded the program, the code would be mailed to you, and it even showed what such an email might look like. I checked the email I have registered with Amazon, and my email I might have put in during registration (I couldn’t remember if there had been a registration process), and I couldn’t find the “key code”. It turns out that there is no email. …you need to go to the Amazon folder that gets put in your Start Menu, as a part of installing the downloader. In that folder (“Amazon”–>”Amazon Games & Software”) there is an icon labelled “Go to Your Games & Software Library”. If you click on that, then click to “view order key”, it will show you the “key code”. The key code does not look like the example that H&R Block shows you (“ABCD-1234″), it _is_ four characters -dash- four characters, but it’s totally random looking (not letters on one side and numbers on the other — e.g. “HQ8F1-RG29L” — I almost didn’t recognize it after looking at the example that H&R Block had in their Help text).
I used TurboTax last year. I switched this year to H&R Block At Home because I wasn’t happy with it and someone in a review had mentioned this program. I am much happier with H&R Block than TurboTax — it seems much less like a random series of questions, and I can guess what it’s getting at on the forms when it’ asking me questions.
