Are the online tax-filing systems any good?

Are the online tax-filing systems (netfile, u file, and quicktax) any good? Are there any differences in them regarding tax deductions or credits? Would it be better to do it by myself on paper first? It's my first time doing my taxes on my own.

I haven't had any direct experience with these online tax-filing systems, but I have heard they work quite well. I don't know if one is any better than another. But I do know there shouldn't be any difference in terms of how they handle deductions and tax credits. I think the differences would relate more to ease of use. As for doing it on paper first, how much of a masochist are you?

Why don't you go to my blog and pose the question there under my income tax blog on April 1. Some of my peeps may have some experience they can share with you. Failing that, search for reviews of those software programs on the net and see what pops up.
