I have used TurboTax both online and software editions for over 5 years. The online version would not allow me to import my Quicken files, so I opted for the Deluxe version with Federal and State. TurboTax is fast, quick and easy. Installation and updates were very smooth. Since I use Quicken, I love the option to import the files into TurboTax for faster and esier categoriztion. A big plus this year is the automatic import of W2 files. If you have one of the larger firms handling your company’s payroll, this option is a great timesaver. It even calculates your Tax stimuluss rebate! The carryover of federal info to state is also a big plus.nThe biggest Con is the EFile fee, $17.95 for both federal and state separately. This is a rip off. Efiling your federal return will speed your tax stimulus rebate (if you qualify), but it is not worth it for both. There is an option when you have completed your taxes to give your feedback in a survey and to join the TurboTax Inner Circle. I strongly suggest you do so the let Intuit know what you think of their extra charges.nIntuit makes what I think is the best tax filing software. I love having the detailed tax forms it allows you to save and print as well. If you purchase the software edition, you can import it into your Quicken file and easily update next year’s edition of TurboTax. Intuit does need to do a better job of eliminating the confusing mulitple ediitons (Federal +Efile, Federal without Efile, Federal +State). They also need to be more reasonable with the Efile fee.
