[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]New poster.  We have had somebody else prepare out taxes for the past several years because our situation was a bit complicated and we have somebody who does our taxes pretty cheap, but this past year our lives got much simpler and I am thinking that maybe we should use Turbotax (or some other software).  Do the software programs determine what filing status (married filing jointly, married filing separately, etc.) will lead to the biggest return?  We have a rental property, so it looks to me as though we would need to go with the Premier Turbotax if we were going to purchase something.[/quote]

yes they do figure out, for example, if you are better off with a standard deduction or itemized (or sales tax vs income tax).  I think they probably would do MFJ vs MFS but a) 99% of the time MFJ will be better and b) if for some reason it doesn't do it automatically, I think you could probably just save one version and go back and change that one option it will rerun the numbers[/quote]
