Basically reliable software with some minor annoying features. I liked the easy interview format and the ability to import data from previous returns. Towards the end of the process, I was asked to create a 5-digit PIN; at the same time an inconspicuous Help question noted I must use a pre-assigned 6-digit PIN. It turned out that to advance to the next page I had to enter the pre-assigned PIN elsewhere in the return AND create a new 5-digit PIN.
Pros: Easy to prepare
Cons: Time consuming
I would recommend this to a friend!

There’s an annoying flaw in your download website that prevented me from getting updates and also getting the state download. Luckily Google AI recommended disabling Internet Protocol IPv6 and that did the trick. Note that your 2024 program had the same problem but the 2023 program works fine.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

At the very end of preparing my state return, I went from receiving a refund to owing the state.I was strange because it changed all of a sudden.
Pros: Easy to prepare
Cons: Doesn't maximize refund

The H&R Block deluxe program for federal is pretty good, but some of the questions and Interviews are not specific enough nor clear enough. For example, the question "Did you contribute to an IRA?" Should be clarified that this is a standalone IRA not one with an employer or rollover or conversion. Several questions are unclear and too vague. In the state (Maryland), there are similar issues and parts completely unexplained.
Pros: Fast
Cons: Hard to prepare

I bought it because TurboTax doesn’t support windows 10. It is easy to use.
Pros: Easy to prepare
Cons: Doesn't maximize refund
