Can anybody recomend a good and accurate tax refund calculator.
The only one I find is HR block. All the other once fail to consider such things as child care expenses which makes a huge difference for me. Last year we had almost 3000 dollars in day care costs and that was the reason we even did not have to pay anything. The calculators I have run across all ignore that part, as well as tuition costs, other school expenses etc.
So other than HR block? Can you recommend any?

You can put all of your information into the online form of Turbo Tax, it calculates your refund/how much you own and you don't pay anything for Turbo tax unless you submit your taxes that way. It's worth the $35 to use Turbo tax anyway, I think. I get the CD version of it though because you can't access the forms online to double check things.

It doesn't get any easier than Turbo Tax. I wouldn't use anything else.

Well, I got it by now. I just wanted to compare 2 0r 3 different calculators to see if they were consistent.

I'm confused. Do you want a "calculator" to estimate what you might get back or owe or are you looking for a place to actually 'do' your taxes?
