1. You didn't actually file with the paycheck stub. They made an estimate on your refund and LOANED you money.
2. Many people went to someone else to do their taxes and then FAILED to pay the loans back. The banks are now having difficultly getting the people to pay the money back and even to get them to admit that they actually owe the money. After all, they promised to pay the loans back out of their refunds, they did have their taxes done, the refund did pay the preparer, but whether or not they paid the bank back, they have no idea....
3. The banks learned their lesson. They can't trust people.

No they didn't allow you to file with just the check stub. What they did was figure your taxes based on the check stub and give you a high interest loan for the amount of your refund. They were not permitted to actually file your return with the IRS until you came back with your W-2.
For a variety of reasons, this program is no longer available.

You should ask them that question to Jackson Hewitt. It is my understanding that some 2007 tax forms are not yet ready. Also, call H&R Block and see what they have to say.

You SHOULD be able to. Maybe they were assessed a penalty for accepting that filing last year though?

too many screw ups and mistakes because of using that. IRS said no more.
