Last year they had free e-file with this version of TurboTax...

It is a chance for them to up-sell and steal market share from Taxcut.

edit: (just installed.. this year's version has free e-file as well)

Never used it for rentals but typically the more advanced versions of Turbo Tax will walk you through the topic, ask questions, and 'hold your hand' as you fill in the necessary forms. The basic version will likely only do that for the most standard topics so you may have to do it manually. TurboTax does recommend using their Premier version for rental property.

You can also get TurboTax Basic from Vanguard for free if you have enough assets wtih them. I've done it several years lately, including free efile.

Same here otherwise need to play with spreadsheet, I need to convert to roth and need accurate estimate to avoid recharacterization. Need to take advantage of 0-10% tax bracket.

I guess one can also get taxact for free, looks like now for 2010.
