TaxCut Is the Complete Solution
"Feature-for-feature TaxCut's price can't be beat, and TaxCut provides optional professional tax advice on federal and state income
tax concerns for much less than TurboTax (with TurboTax only offering federal advice). It is a big plus to know that if you use
TaxCut and change your mind about completing your own taxes you can have H&R Block finish the work for you and recoup the cost
of the software." --Shelley Elmblad, About.com, January 16, 2007
You Are Protected in the Event of an Audit
"For peace of mind, H&R Block also provides free audit support for federal and state returns that are e-filed. This means that
if you're ever audited by the IRS, an H&R Block tax pro will help you prepare for the IRS visit. By comparison, TurboTax users
pay $40 for audit assistance." --Elsa Wenzel, CNET.com, December 12, 2006
