DO NOT USE TAXACT - the price of the cloudbased software has nearly doubled!!!

I could not e-file unless I purchased the freelance edition. They said it was the only package that could handle a Schedule C.

Next year, I'm going this FREE ROUTE: the IRS’s Free File program, which lets you prepare and electronically file your return for free using software from a consortium of about a dozen tax-prep companies. Some are brand names; others are a little more under the radar. Simply answer a few questions on the site, and the IRS will match you with the right software. There’s a catch, of course: Your adjusted gross income can’t be more than $64,000. If your income exceeds that threshold, you can still use the Free File site, but you’ll get access only to fillable electronic versions of the IRS forms and not much guidance.
