Quick Tax 2007 & Quicken?

Quicken 2008

Just a head's up, apparently Intuit has REDUCED the number of returns that can be prepared with Quicktax 2007. It looks like Quicktax now gives only TWO (2) returns for the upfront money. Extra returns can be purchased within the software package....but I have no idea how much extra returns cost. Seems to me last year's version (2006) included FIVE (5) returns.

Hell, I recall using the 99 Quicktax to prepare many dozens of returns for profit. I think the first 30 were included in the initial cost plus another

30 for a modest fee. There was no way in getting any more licensed--the software just wouldn't allow any new SIN numbers after the first 60. At that point, one had to RE-use a SIN number to prepare an additional return, then blank out the SIN manually and ink in the proper one, to get around the restriction!!!!

If you are considering buying - DON"T Quicken 2008 has issues with cross currency. Seems Intuit dropped a major feature that most Canadians need. And DON'T buy Quicktax 2007 yet. I have been fighting to get it running for 1 week now. Installs and activates, then refuses to launch. At least wait till they have their phone number working. Email support is NOT 24 x 7.

BTW - you are now down to 2 - TWO - returns for Quicktax.

It is down to 2 returns. Additional returns cost $10 for Basic version, $15 for others.

Me thinks - It is time to start looking for alternatives to Quicktax. I have been using Q forever now.

Quicktax 2008 has some major issues. I am giving it a miss!

Try Studiotax.
