    This is the second year I have used the amazon download of taxcut.
    It was up and running within five minutes. Everything worked perfectly.
    I don't understand the complaining about having to pay for state E-file
    It's not free on any version.

    I just bought this to file my extension because the item says it includes 5 free federal e-files. I figured I would use one for the extension filing and another for the later filing. Turns out it does not allow you to file the extension as a free e-filing but CHARGES $19.95!!! I would not have bought this. And now I see another comment that even though it includes State it does not include State e-filing

    I gave this a 5 star because I had no problems with the program. Download went very smoothly. Easy to understand instructions. If you download this program just make sure you give the download your full attention and you shouldn't have any problems.
    Make sure you write down your key code for e-file. Overall, I am very happy and my 2008 taxes are finished!!
    Thank you Amazon for GREAT Deals!!

    This is the kind of crap that gets companies in trouble with governments for deceptive advertising. The product title of federal+state+efile indicates to any rational person that a state efile is included. Having used TaxCut in the boxed 2007 version, this is how the product was marked and it included a state efile in the cost.

    This product does not include a state efile and will request $19.95 in addition to the purchase price in order to complete a state efile.

    I wish I could reccomend TurboTax instead, but that package is just as useless as this one was. I tried them both and found inexplicable differences in refund ammounts between the two.

    I can assure you after this experience, next year it will just be me, a sliderule, a bottle of scotch and uncle sam duking it out.

    I just tried to download Taxcut 2008 (4/11/09). Following other people's suggestion, I installed Amazon's software downloader first, then downloaded a free game. When it all worked, I purchased the Taxcut software. Guess what? Didn't work. It kept trying to download for the longest time, and said there was a problem with the order. Apparently, what they don't tell you is that once you place an order with a credit card, especially on a weekend or evening hours, someone at Amazon needs to physically check on the credit card before releasing the order. So the order appears as "Pending" until Monday morning. Your order is not released until then. This is inane; what is the point of ordering something for instant download, and then waiting for two days until some moron at Amazon physically clears the credit card? I wish I had not ordered this, and instead just gone to my local BestBuy to get the CD version. Won't be buying software from Amazon in the future, I guess!!! I suspect the reviewers who report having no problems with the download are the ones who downloaded the software during normal business hours (M-F 9-5). Those who try purchasing over the weekend or overnight are screwed. I thought Amazon was smarter than this!!!!
