But $15 is still very reasonable.
Darn. I guess not enough people donation-wared in previous years.
I hadn't noticed yet as I have been filling in fields (it lets you install and use) but not attempting to netfile yet.
So it's $15 for 20 returns (enough for our 3 returns, at $5/return). Not bad. I like it because it's reliable and error free and CRA likes it and I have had zero grief filing with it for, what, around 10 years? And it's a 100% Canadian company. The downsides are it's .NET and really clunky/ugly.
If you're under $20k you can also file for free, so there's that. And if you're a really cheap bbbbbbb you could always use the software for all the math/calcs/optimization then transfer what it shows to the paper forms :-)
