Turbo Tax verses H&R Block's Tax Cut?

I figured out my taxes using both, using the same exact information. There%26#039;s a $700 discrepency in what I owe. There are some fundamental things like my ability to deduct student loan interest (one says I make too much money to deduct any) and tax credits for making energy efficient improvement to my home (one says this credit isn%26#039;t available until 2006) that made the difference. Which do I trust?

Turbo Tax verses H%26amp;R Block%26#039;s Tax Cut?

Turbo tax is good but it takes a long time to complete and I personally always wondered if I did everything correct.

H and R Block, Jackson Hewit and other places like that are basically the McDonalds of taxes. There employees take a training class that is several weeks long and then you are supposed to have confidence in there work.

I am an accountant (I am not a CPA yet but I work for one and will be soon). I have already taken 11 courses in accounting and 1 in finance. I will take another 10 or so before I become a CPA. I currently have more accounting education then anyone that you will find in a H and R block and I still have two more years of education left.

As far as prices are concerned, we usually charge less to prepair a return then the chain tax places and generally do a better job. We can not beet the price of turbo tax but we can give you the confidence that the return is completed right and you do not have to spend several hours ( your time is usally worth some kind of compensation) doing it yourself.

Take your return to a CPA he will take care of you. Build a relationship with him/her and return every year. Trust me in the long run you will save. I know I am biased but I have used all three services before I was an accounting student. In the end I found out that the CPA was the best.
