I completed my 2007 taxes to the extent possible with StudioTax, and had no difficulty whatsoever.

[...] for the 2009 tax year and in my limited test drive of the 2009 edition, I found it to have the same high quality and ease-of-use that I noted in my original review. But UDoTaxes, which is also free to download and free to print and file or NETFILE offers an [...]

I have used Studio Tax for the past 3 years and love it! Love that it’s free. I will be giving a donation this year because I would like this fantastic service to continue.

I used Quick Tax for 8 years and when the returns got down to 2, that was it for me. Notice this year they are back to 8. The gov allows 20 returns and Quick Tax allowed 2. They wanted to see what the public could bare and they found out. (hopefully the hard way) Tried Ufile and did not like it at all.
Used Studio Tax for two years now and love it.
But the way, I send in my $40.00 each year that I would have given Quick Tax, and I hope others do as well. This software is worth it.

I used StudioTax for both 2007 and 2008. I love the software. I cannot believe the number of postings above complaining about minor GUI issues and help files. People, it is FREE! GRATIS! Cost you nothing! Do your own research on box 110 of the T1 General if you have questions. Better yet, pay for some assistance.

I have used various tax preparation software packages in the past 15 years and without fail my Notice of Assessment from CRA contained a revision. I paid too much or not enough. Granted, the amounts were small but when you PAY for something the expectation is the end product will be correct. No revisions to the NOA in either 2007 or 2008 filing with StudioTax. I cannot say enough good things about this programme.

Bjorn: What do you mean by popping everywhere? I don’t pose as someone different and plug StudioTax on various websites. Why would I? I have no financial interest or motivation in doing so. Absolutely none.

I’d have no problem if “Roger” answered reader queries on Acetax but he simply changed the name and email id and posted the same message on various posts from the same IP address. Any reasonable person would consider that as Spam.

“Roger: I’ll allow you one comment to plug Acetax, but 5 other versions of the same comment will be treated as spam. Thanks.”
I agree!
But, taking into consideration that ‘canadian capitalist’ promotional versions for StudioTax are popping everywhere, makes me very suspicious that ‘canadian capitalist’ wants to be ‘Canadian Capitalist’

I used StudioTax last year for my whole family and I’ll be using it again this year. Don’t forget to drop off a donation every year to keep this software going!

This is the first time for me to use StudioTax. I think it is the best software I ever used for the tax return. It is exactly what I expected. Thanks the author of this software, you have done great job to let us to have a very user frendly tax return sofware for free.
Thank you very much!

I am currently trying to use Ufile to file tax returns for 2007 and 2008. Firstly it doesn’t let me manage both files with the same login and carryforward data. I have to login seperately for each tax year, no big deal but when I tried to open both returns at the same time in order to get some numbers from the 2007 return to input into the 2008 return I noticed that information began to be mixed in between returns ie. 2007 data appearing in the 2008 return and vice versa. Yikes!! I now have to re-do both with some other software. I think i’ll have to go back to QuickTax although it’s more expensive. or maybe i’ll try StudioTax first since everyone here seems to like it.
