2.0 out of 5 stars missed major deduction, February 1, 2006

This review is from: TaxCut 2005 Deluxe (non-tax states) [Old Version] (CD-ROM)

I've used Taxcut for a few years and fairly happy with it. But this year it missed the sales tax deduction (I live in a state with no state income tax). The program defaulted to using state income tax (Schedule A line5). It should have seen no state income tax reported in the worksheet and compared to estimated
sales tax table and went with that. (a fairly large deduction)
I also think the way HSBC tries to sneak in it's additional $12.95 fee for 'easy pay' is rather underhanded.

1.0 out of 5 stars Doesn't import financial institution data, February 13, 2006

I just purchased the software and successfully installed it on my computer. When I got to the point of entering dividends and capital gains, I couldn't figure out how to import the data from Fidelity that I've done for the last few years. Looking around on the Fidelity website, I can across the following statement: "For the 2005 tax year, Fidelity information will not be able to be imported directly into H&R Block's TaxCut programs. H&R Block expects that these products will have this functionality restored for the 2006 tax year." Unfortunately, this is the reason I'm using a software tax prep program, looks like it's back to TurboTax!

I cannot believe that Taxcut can no longer import capital gains info from Fidelity, which is has been able to do for several years. I was a happy customer, now I'm a MAD customer.
