One more thing

I did my taxes for my mom.  She had given me her copy of Taxcut that was sent to her.  If you want to use it they charge you $20 for the software and then another $10 or $15 to efile the return.  Well I heard from someone about being able to do your taxes online for free at turbotax.com so I figured before I dole out the cash for Taxcut I’d take a look.  Well I was pleasantly surprised with what I found.  If you are just doing a basic return you can do it online AND Efile it for absolutely FREE!  Granted you have to have a very simple return with little more than a W-2, bank interest and dividend statements in order to qualify for the free deal.  If you need more you can still do it online but they will start charging you for it.  So in the span of 20 minutes I had mom’s taxes totally done, filed and shipped off to the IRS without even so much as installing a program on my PC.  Pretty darn slick.
