Taxes
February 11th, 2009
My taxes are done because I fuckin rule. It took me all of an hour, and I did them with 2 different programs. If your AGI was less than $56k you can e-file federal for free at both turbotax.com and hrblock.com. Turbotax charges you like $25 to e-file the state and HRblock charges $30. I’m pretty sure they charge you for just the preparation, so you might as well e-file. It’s a hell of a lot faster than printing out the form and mailing it in. I say I’m “pretty sure” because it wouldn’t even let me view my state tax return without paying.
Last year I used some version of taxcut that they sent me for free, and I ended up e-filing anyway, but I COULD have done it for free if I wanted to. Last year one program gave me a return of $200 more than the other, so I obviously used the larger one. This year the difference between the two was $1. There shouldn’t be any difference at all, but it didn’t get flagged, so I’m not really concerned.
Anyhow, just thought I’d post a heads up for those of you that make less than $56k, or if you have pretax 401k deductions that put you below the $56k mark. There’s no reason to pay to file when you don’t have to.
