I had an issue with 2022 version and not sure if it still existed in 2023 version. In any case it cost me $10000 because I did not realize I was not withholding enough for taxes. The problem occurred in entering deductions. I entered an amount of earnings of $8000 dollars and I fat fingered taxes withheld as $10000 instead of $1000. The program did not catch the fact that I entered more taxes withheld than income coming in. I have been a software engineer for 38 years and this kind of simple error checking missing from product is inexcusable. I would recommend this product with the caveat to make sure you enter all data correctly since the program might not catch this mistake.
Pros: Easy to prepare
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this on line early in 2024. The "Deluxe" option was applicable for my family's situation (small self-employed business, investments, income for SSA, Pensions, and Annuities). It is relatively easy to use and provides helpful information should I have any questions.
Have been using HR block for years for husband and I plus our 2 kids. This year helped my niece file her first tax return with it as well. It has helped us with rental property schedule e, creating new depreciation schedules and reporting trust income without having to purchase more expensive software.
