overview

THE GOOD
H&R Block TaxCut Online Premium 2006 offers a streamlined tax interview with fewer screens to read and is less expensive than TurboTax Online; includes helpful tips for deductions and investment planning.

THE BAD
H&R Block TaxCut Online Premium 2006 wouldn't let us log in using Firefox 2; didn't let us easily skip incomplete sections; its DeductionPro for determining the value of charitable contributions costs an extra $19.99.

THE BOTTOM LINE
Unlike its desktop counterpart, we encountered problems testing H&TaxCut Online Premium 2006. The interface is relatively friendly overall, but you'll save money with TaxAct Online for super simple returns and get more assistance with complex returns from Intuit TurboTax Premier Online.
