All versions of TurboTax, including the TurboTax Deluxe 2008, can be safely and conveniently downloaded online from the manufacturer (Intuit). TurboTax Deluxe is downloaded as a 56 MB large file and the estimated download time is no more than 15 minutes if you download via a DSL connection. It will naturally go even faster if you are connected through a Cable Modem, 9 minutes, while a download via a Dial-up service can take more than 2 hours.

TurboTax Basic and TurboTax Deluxe will not only save you time and money by taking care of the calculations and fill out the forms for you, the software will also make it possible for you to file your form electronically to the IRS using E-file. Filing your tax return electronically can make you receive your tax return much sooner than you are accustomed to. By using TurboTax Basic or TurboTax Deluxe to calculate your taxes and filling out the forms for you, you will limit the risk of errors considerably.
According to the IRS's own research, the tax returns prepared on paper include errors in more than 17.5 percent of the cases. That’s almost one out of every five tax returns! For the tax returns prepared and filed electronically, that number is below 0.5 percent. It is easy to understand why Americans using software such as TurboTax Deluxe can receive their tax returns much faster and without any hassle. Last year, over 40 million Americans sent their tax returns to the IRS electronically and the number is increasing each year as more and more taxpayers realise the benefits of electronically calculated tax returns.
The benefits are not limited to speed and correctness; using TurboTax Basic or TurboTax Deluxe to file your tax returns will also increase the safety of the transaction. When you send in your filled out forms via regular mail you have no way of knowing whether or not they actually reached the IRS in time. Unfortunate taxpayers have experienced the unpleasant surprise of receiving a letter from the IRS months after they dropped their forms in the mailbox; a letter demanding their income tax return, plus considerable amounts of money in interest and penalties. When you use TurboTax Basic or TurboTax Deluxe to file your tax return, you will receive an instant verification from the IRS that proves that the agency has received your forms.
