Im considering alternative software as h&r block is too expensive even when filing on my own. It used to be reasonable but now it's expensive and desevingly so. You buy the software and it implies a state will come with it then you find out you have to pay extra for the state. Disappointing.
I have used H&R Block in the past, but always had help from my brother. This year I finally filled out my taxes myself. It was very easy. The directions are simple and pretty much fool proof.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
Have used the program for several years now and love the ease of use. Though my taxes are simple, the program is very thorough and asks all the questions. Reviews and explanations are also very well done.
