Have used in that past, found this year to be a bit more cumbersome. Commercials past few months talking about BBB and better returns, some options seeemed to have gone away. Overall return resulted in more paid back to both (especially state) than expected. Left us a little surprised and disappointed. Had to go through a second time to fine more reductions, was asked questions (disability) and investment costs with no apparent follow on steps to walk through.
Pros: Easy to prepare
Cons: Time consuming, Doesn't maximize refund, Hard to import documents
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

When I printed out for my files the cover page was 2 pages long but was printed out as a run on page with one line only printed bottom half because the page scaling was messed up. If you can’t even print out a standard page what else did you screw up?

The step-by-step program is generally easy to follow, but some steps were unclear, particularly for entering adjustments to determine Kentucky taxable income. The AI assistant was completely useless - I asked 3 different questions and it was unable to provide an answer for each. I ended up using Gemini to determine the correct forms and instructions. I don't plan to use the H&R Block Software in the future.
Cons: Time consuming

The printing of forms section could be improved to make it easier to de-select individual forms if "All forms to be submitted" is selected (and I decide I don't want to print them all out). As it is now, I have to de-select the "All forms..." button and then try to remember the entire list of forms that are being submitted. That list is too long to have to write them all down.
Pros: Easy to prepare
I would recommend this to a friend!

This software greatly simplified filing my income tax return for 2025. My return is not complicated, but I do have investment income, social security, and a pension. I was able to finish the return in less than 2 hours
Pros: Easy to prepare, Fast
I would recommend this to a friend!

We’re so happy to hear you had a good experience. We appreciate your business and thank you for the valuable feedback!
My partner and I have two children. I let her take them as dependents but I want to list them as my children without also claiming them as dependents. Your system does not allow me to do that. It automatically list one child as not a dependent but the other child as a dependent, and subsequent questioning did not allow me to disqualify him as a dependent. I think there should be a question about whether you allow another person (your partner) to list your child as dependents while you do not.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents, Fast

Product is ok but incorrect information through multiple layers of support took many weeks to just get a workaround that did not completely work instead of fixing the source of the problem in the software was a painful experience.
