Tax laws change from year to year ... best get a new copy and write it off on your taxes. \n\nMake sure the shortcut points to the correct folder. You might have to re-install it but save last year's return first.

It is free to file. Just send it in the mail. Now if you are talking about Electronic filing then you would have to purchase a program. Turbotax no longer offers the rebate. TaxCut does. You must pay first and then send in your form and you will get refunded.

I recommend purchasing TurboTax and finding what it says you owe.  Then, even if you do use an accountant, you have something to bounce it against.

I'm not a tax professional so check this out with one.  Usually there are penalties and interest due on late payments.  It is going to be state specific.  If you are having trouble paying, contact your state tax office and ask to set up a payment schedule.  It may add interest, so ask what additional fees or charges are added to your tax bill.  If you go to the IRS site, you can look around for a link to your specific state.

If this is the first time you're filing your taxes on your own, I'm guessing they're not that complicated. I would use Turbo Tax for the web (for free) if your AGI is under $28.5k. I used it for the past two years (prior to this year) and I find it to be excellent.

I have submitted several rebates and find them to be annoying.  I think the companies actually design them to be troublesome so as to discourage use of them.  On at least 4 occasions I have had to call the customer service to defend my claim to the rebate after having been turned down.  In every instance, I was told that I was correct, it was their data entry error and that the rebate would be sent out.  This procedure was just another hoop to jump through and ended up delaying the rebates an additional 4-6 weeks above the normal 6-8 weeks expected.  If the company really expected everyone to use the rebates, they would just discount the price of the item.  They use rebates so they don't have to honor the discount for everyone.

TurboTax worked great for me.  With a business and my wife having a seperate job I blew right through it.  It covers pretty much everything.  But, I guess it may depend on how good you are at keeping your records.  For you it's going to be best to file married but filing seperately anyway.

If you filed last year, then the place that did your taxes for 2004 will have one for you. If not, then call the CRA and they should have a copy of one for you. I work at a tax place, this is a liable answer, lol.

Call the IRS and tell them you are in a hardship situation and ask for an Offer in Compromise form.  It is not that difficult to complete .. just answer all the questions honeslty.  I use to work for the IRS and help many get their tax debits forgiven or releave for a small percentage  of the amount claimed due by the government. \n\nIf you have any question post it here and I will figure out a way to share my personal email addy with you... for more detailed questions specific to your case .....

I don't think there is a company out there that is legit.  I signed up for a couple a few years ago and I ended up getting screwed

I go to an accountant.  It costs a couple hundred dollars, but it saves me a lot of hassle and worry.  I know it will be done right and they will stand by the work they do if there are ever any problems.  \n\nMany people swear by places like H&R Block or Turbo Tax.

you suck!  Turn yourself in to Camp Cupcake Immediately.  \n\n\nOr try H&R Block or the online thingey.
