Answer:
I like Turbo Tax. It's pretty easy to use and seems thorough. I've used Tax Cut and that was ok. I like Turbo Tax better. As far as your question regarding have a check cut, if that's what they say then I would go with that. This year, I heard that it may take longer to get your tax refunds. I think it may have had to do with the AMT problem. (alternative minimum tax) I always have my refunds direct deposited. I don't want a check. To get the answer you want requires you to contact them directly because it may be different this year. It depends on the IRS. I think it would be hard for Turbo Tax or H&R Block to guarantee anything because it's out of their hands. What they can control is when they submit the file.

Answer:
I always use H&R block.com. It asks easy questions you just fill in. As far as your freind have her tell them to put it on a prepaid debit card.

Answer:
Find an accountant, you can not blame errors on your input or software, with an accountant, you have someone who has to pay for fines if there is a mistake. Let me ask you, are you self insured on your cars, if so you would be saving money. It is the same with doing your owe taxes: any problems and you are accountable for the errors.

Answer:
I recommend Tax Cut that way if you have problems you can use the H & R Block associates to help you.

I know in offices you can get your money faster without a checking account by doing a loan but the IRS schedule is set up where a check prints 1 week after a direct deposit would have posted.

Good Luck.
