Jacob finished our taxes yesterday--state and federal--in about an hour! We used the TurboTax Freedom Edition, which offers free tax filing to those that qualify in one of three ways:
1) 2008 income is less than $30,000
2) Active duty military
3) Qualify for the Earned Income Credit
Federal tax filing is free, and twenty-one different states allow free state filing through TurboTax as well. The process was incredibly simple; I was amazed at how quickly we were finished!
You can find the TurboTax Freedom Edition here.

It is actually 21 states.
And yes it was easy.
Yikes! Taxes scare me! People keep telling me I can do it, but I don't believe them.
BTW, I tagged you again on my blog! ; )
Heather, Thank you SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much for mentioning that. I was so scared about doing taxes, but I knew I wanted to do them before we left the country (Feb 8). Because you said it was so easy, I sat down and did my taxes and was thrilled not only with the result, but also with our return! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Love,
Lorina
Jacob-thank you, love. I updated the number of states.
Lorina-I'm so glad it worked so well for you! I'll be keeping posted with you guys and your adventures on your blog. :)
You're a lifesaver! I need to get taxes done soon, as well as filling out about 50,000 other pages related to medical stuff...
Thank you thank you! I think I'll send this link to my hubby so he can do ours for free.
