In Australia, you just log on to a portal on the tax office web site and most types of income are already in there, pre-filled. You spend a few minutes putting in any deductions or other income, and then it works out if you're eligible for any credits, offsets etc. and you click 'File'. It's free and doesn't generally take me more than about half an hour per year.
