This question comes up every year. Tax software is pretty much dead these days. Almost every company now has a web version. Quicktaxweb is my tax software of choice. Works exactly like any other physical software, and ends up costing less in most cases.

Been using www.quicktaxweb.ca for the past 3 years with no complaints. www.ufile.ca made a mistake in 2003 calculating my tuition fees into the tax deduction so in November 2004 I got a pretty nasty letter about it...

Are you backed up??? If so, why? Psyllium Fibre is not free but will do wonders!

I use my platform-independent brain, calculator, and pencil (pen on final copy).

I have used TaxTron in the past... there are both Mac and Windows versions available, free to use if your net income is below $30K, netfile certified.

QTWeb $$$

I have used Quicktaxweb for a couple of years so went to their site recently and entered all my data. I was shocked to see the price has changed this year to $20.00 each for both primary and spouse returns. uFile is much cheaper and is quite easy to use.

I like quicktax web. In addition be being as fully featured as any other tax software, they have all the forms for previous tax years online too (well, 2004 and 2005 at least) which has come in handy for me.

Quicktaxweb was only $14.95 when pre ordered before Jan 14 this year, I was glad I did that.

Actually, this question has already come up this year. Matmude, may I suggest using the search feature? The previous thread was quite lengthy and had a lot of suggestions. Better than having everyone post their opinions again.

I'm pretty sure dona83 replied to the previous thread too, that story sounds familiar...
