The good: H&R Block's updated tax interview is less wordy and easier to follow than in the past; includes free audit support for electronic filing; costs less than Intuit's TurboTax Premier.
The bad: TaxCut lacks weekend tech support; cannot import medical expenses from the included DeductionsPro; some investment tools could be better.
The bottom line: For do-it-yourself tax preparers, H&R Block TaxCut Premium 2006 is a solid buy. TaxCut is a breeze to learn and notably less expensive than archrival TurboTax Premier.

Summary: Fails to account for married couples who both have seperate Heath Savings Accounts. Turbo tax got this right without the manual intervention that was necessary in Taxcut. (If you didn't know what the outcome should have been Taxcut would have you paying too much tax). Leaves some residual data unless you complete an entire section and remove it. Lots of live and on-line tech support but the individuals that respond are either not knowledgible or well trained. Too much support quantity and not enough quality. The year-to-year comparision information is not good visiually and should be condensed. Comparisons to others in the same income range is next to worthless. It doesn't factor in what types of income. Difficult to single out one form to print when you are at the "print return" step.
