IANAAccountant, but I used to be, and to the best of my knowledge, it is still the case that expenses you incur in the preparation of your tax return are deductable. So if you have to shell out $35 for a tax package (and $89 for an o/s to run it, and $150 for a harddrive upon which to install that o/s) then as long as you itemise, and keep your receipts, what's the problem?
