I used Turbotax for my US taxes though our Canadian taxes are now complicated enough that we decided to have an accountant do them. Turbotax is really nice, though i still find it hard to stomach paying for something that should be a free government provided service. A government benefits likely more than an individual from individuals filing online, should they not bare the cost and reap the benefit? Seems like something that various governments could collaborate on. EIN: Yeah, I saw your blog post and photos on Flickr of that horror of a website.

Worse still, inaccurate information abounds on the internet and many people rely to their detriment. I've blogged on this very topic recently. The IRS is terrible at explaining regulations and laws.

I would highly recommend <a href="http://Turbotax.com" rel="nofollow">Turbotax.com</a> -- it's actually extremely well done and well worth the low price of admission.
