Hi, I am thinking about using TurboTax online because I get it for free
as a State Farm customer. Anybody have any experience with this
service? I am a little wary of uploading all my personal information to
them.
Thanks,
Scott

Scott, I used Turbo-Tax last year, ON-LINE, got a speedy refund, and no
hassle.

I've used Turbo Tax in both the online and offline versions. I like the
online better because I know it's always current and because it allows me
to store backup copies of my returns (and worksheets) on their server.

I've been in the high-tech field for 20+ years and started with PCs with a
Commodore-64, so you think I would be a big advocate of this "quicker, easier"
method. However, I too, am very wary of doing this. Vanguard has been
offering TT online free for a couple of years, but I still use a PC based tax
program. I guess it's all of the stories you hear of security breaches and
employee errors that expose personal information.

With respect to tax software, I've used TaxCut for years because that's
what I started with, it's cheaper, and serves my purposes completely. (At
the time I started using it I owned rental property and it was more
complete in that regard than TurboTax.)
With respect to doing it online, only you can decide if you're comfortable
with that. If not, consider purchasing tax software at a discount store.
It's pretty cheap. Lots of loss leader sales are available at Office Depot,
Office Max, and the like.
