I bought this software in Feb and it is a good program. I wish the text font size could have been increased to size 12 from the 8 used.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Fast
I would recommend this to a friend!

I've used the download version of HR Block tax software for years. It has always covered all of my specific tax situations, and is structured in a way that is easy to use. Given the unnecessary complexity of the US Tax code, the price of the software is reasonable, and I find it gives me good value for what I pay. It would cost many hundreds of dollars more to have my taxes done by an accountant. This software is the only reason I keep windows installed on my dual-boot computer, my only lament is that it is not available for Linux, but I certainly understand why (too small a user base, too many versions of Linux).
Pros: Easy to prepare, Fast

Multiple years of experience in completing my personal tax returns using this software. Multiple years of identifying short falls in the software which required research of IRS Pubs and instructions to overcome those short falls. Cannot think of a reason to attempt to use this again.

I have been using HR Block for about 12 years ,Each year the improvements are helpful and meaningful. I have never been audited, but had two issues that were bothersome the first was about 9 years ago when the IRS said the Electronc submission was not received in a legible condition , so I had to submit the Return as a hard copy, that they did accept and approve. I paid for free Efiling but didn't get it. The 2nd issue is with the 2024 tax return The IRS accepted my return then sent me a notice saying they wanted more time to review (60days), its been over a year and I still don't have my refund, they haven't asked for any further information or suggested anything was wrong so I don't know if this is like the first issue where the transmission was the problem
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Fast

Easy to use and follow the "interview" questions. Could do a better job explaining the "verification" items.
