I’ve been using this software for several years now and this is the first time I wouldn’t have given 5 stars. I ran into too many places where the instructions were confusing or incomplete. I had to redo a few sections of the questions because of this, and I double-checked: it wasn’t just because of mistakes on my part; it was due to poor instructions. This year my return was more complicated than usual because of a circumstance I’ll likely never encounter again—but it’s not an unheard of situation. Other than this, I’d rate the software excellent.
Cons: Hard to prepare, Hard to import documents
I would recommend this to a friend!

There are lots of pitfalls in the latest version of the software. The Help files don't work very often. The AI doesn't help. It's so bad that I'll return to Turbo Tax next year.
Cons: Time consuming, Doesn't maximize refund, Hard to prepare
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Could not attach pdf files with state return. Archiac having to mail return. Next year explore software that allow attachents.

Almost missed the filing deadline because the software would not connect to h&r block servers to download state and get latest updates. Even with Windows firewall off it was still a problem. The application ran well but could have provided more information about certain fields instead of referring to irs forms
