I looked at quick tax and I will be getting it. 15 bucks is still way cheaper than getting it done by some one else. also I have tried a few others at the same time and they missed things quick tax picked up.

I kinda chuckel that people go out and spend thouands on a fish tank and complain about 15 bucks :wink:

Not to much she said she will pass the info on. I also told theme that I will not be buy quicktax next year. It's like buying a box of chips the price keeps going up and you get less chips.Funny how that works. maybe at the end of the day they will see how much business they loss.

Well ..... they have been allowing more then 2 full returns (over $25K) for years and now they just cut back with little notice but charge the same amount of money.

The consumer is not going to accept this. I know many people who have noticed this and have complained to Intuit already.

I know many of those people will not be going back to Quicktax.

From the CRA website:
Certified software for the 2008 NETFILE Program (2007 tax return)
"Certified" tax preparation software or "certified" tax preparation Web application means that the developer of the tax package has gone through a process with the CRA to establish that their product is compatible with the CRA systems. This does not mean that we endorse or recommend any product over another, nor does the CRA look at spelling or grammatical errors within the tax preparation software packages or Web applications.

It then goes on the list the Certified packages, Quicktax and ufile included.

What I take from it is it works (though might have some spelling mistakes). If it does the same as Qucktax and puts and additional 15 bucks in my pocket...

Not sure how many people are in your household but if you are a couple, then quicktax for 2 returns will work just fine. Different story if you have 4 tax returns that needs to be filed and then realized that Quicktax only give you two returns when in the past they allowed for 4 returns.

I spend my living helping people realize that free (as in beer) is not entirely bad. Not everyone's out to get you out of money - the best way I can put it is "nerds who care". I think it's just a refreshing shift of morals. Sure there are the zealots who think that all should be free, and software should overthrow the existing market players - but in reality, people demand choice, people get the choice out of it. Use it or don't?

tax
 
for those that used TaxWiz last year or the year before this is now Quick Tax
It seems that Quick Tax has taken over Tax wiz.I guess it will be U-File for me. 8 returns vs 2 ...hmmmm let me see.

OH U-File YAAAAA

i got a response from quick tax about the smaller limits and their guy went on to say only 20% of all people who bought quicktax last year used more than the couple of returns. so they changed the limit to appeal to the 80% of the people out their. by the response on this board, seems like there is more than 20% who used more than the couple of returns and like to keep some extra cash in their pocket.
