I got my w2 electronically, filled out all of my information at www.express1040.com, and filed my federal and state taxes electronically. No more paper returns for me!!! :thumbsup:😀


EDIT: W00t, the feds accepted my tax return. Hello refund in 10-16 days!!! 😀.


EDIT: w00t, got my State refund in my bank account :thumbsup:.

EDIT: w00t, got my fed refund in my bank account :thumbsup:. Now it's time to pay off some credit card debt I've accumulated 🙁.
 
How much was it?

I went to e-file today and it mentioned a 'free file' option, but the page won't be up until January 18.

Cost me 13.95. The federal was free, but the cost is in the state return.
 
You can e-file for free if your AGI (Ajusted Gross Income) is below $50,000 at many places (see the IRS.GOV site for details starting on the 18th). Some states also have free e-file...YMMV.

I've used TurboTax.com for 3 years. It's so easy because it retains last years info and basically fills in about 50% of the form for me, but this year, it's $35.00 to file federal and state. I may look at TaxAct since it's around $12.95 for state and federal, even if I have to enter all of the information again.

<---goes looking for a turbotax.com coupon! 😛 (Found 15% off...looking for better)! 🙂

What state are you doing? E-filing with TurboTax is $14.95 per file (state/federal) and $29.95 for both.. not $35.

$34.90 for both. Am I missing something?

Edit: Are you talking about the standard PC TurboTax software purchased in store? I was referring to TurboTax.com which I already have information stored there.

the acceptance only means that it met its electronic filing requirements. It does not mean that they agree with your filing.
