I have been using H&R Block for years. But this year with a new MacBook Pro computer I encountered a glitch in the software. It would print my return enlarged thus showing only 2/3 of the page. It took hours and lots of googling to sort this problem out! Really not acceptable. I gave three stars because, otherwise, the software works fine. BTW … I was not alone in encountering this problem.
I have used H&R software for years. After previously using the big name competitor, I eventually switched to H&R Block because it costs less. It is just as easy to use, yet is very thorough.
Software is reasonably priced, especially if you catch it at the beginning of the tax season. Once installed, the step-by-step process is easy to follow.
I did not grab the state filing initially. I thought it was included in the original price. Then I found out it was separate and it was more for the state than the initial federal with state combines. Very cheeky and deceptive.
I have used H&R Block for over 30 years without issues. Help was always available when needed. I definitely recommend this product to all novices and experts.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
