What tax software do you use, if any?

I used Turbo Tax. I bought it at costco for $29.97 or so with the Federal and Free State software. I waited until Costoco offered the $15 off coupon which was the first week of February.
The problem isn't so much the software costs, but if you e-file, that is what gets you.
Most softwares are pretty good, you just need to read the box (and maybe some reviews) to see which is best for your particular situation.
I didn't move, buy anything large purchase, and I didn't buy or sell stock. I had the basic, W-2, Married, dependent, with a mortgage return and it was easy to use.
Good luck!

Proseries is a good program. You'll run into problems when you get into multiple state returns, but then again unless you go top tier every program has this problem. The biggest issue is generally getting the credit for taxes paid to other jurisdictions to work correctly and sourcing the income to the non resident states. The person who said to look at the AICPA's list gave you good advice too. Lacerte has a decent software package. Turbo tax off the shelf is a waste for a tax preparer, it is good for what it is designed for the do it your selfer with a W-2 and a simple return. (I think Judy is correct about the liscensing problem - not to mention that it will not allow you to fill out the paid preparer section)

At work, we use CCH, which is really GREAT. At home, I use turbocrap. Ooops, I mean turbo tax. I always thought it was okay, but this yr I found 2 glitches in it that I had to override to fix and a non-accountant might never have even noticed.

I would suggest using a common software like TurboTax from Intuit. There really well bulit applications, and they are simple to use. However, there are some other choices but TurboTax is pretty good.

Turbo Tax is great. It's very easy to use and is not that expensive if purchased at target.

TurboTax Premier, for sure. But hurry...it takes 48 hrs to find out if your returns are accepted after they are submitted. That is, if you are e-filing your returns. Good luck!
