When prompted to attach specific REQUIRED (as per H&R Block software) state tax forms like PA-40 w2 reconciliation worksheet, the software does not allow you to do so. Have repeatedly requested this glitch be fixed but to no avail.
After using the software for years w/ no problem, the 2021 software would not properly print out my return; it would only print out the upper left (approximately) 1/4 of each page of the return. Hardware used was a 2019 iMac (w/ latest OS version) and Brother laser printer. Program (including e-filing) otherwise worked fine.
Have used for more than a decade with generally good results. This past year that all ended. The software would not download stock transactions. Customer service said they were working on it but didn't have resolution. Suggested I enter manually, which is what I had to do. The main reason I buy it is to streamline this exact sort of thing. So, guess I'll be trying a different brand next year.
Generally good software for taxes but it has a problem with PA trust income, which it transfers as interest income. When you go to fill out the trust information, it ADDS the entered trust income AGAIN to your return, doubling your tax liability for that income. I have reported this bug for several years but no one at Block seems to care.
The H&R Block Deluxe Software has been my personal choice for completing federal and state tax returns for over 10 years. The flow is logical. The software is easy to navigate from within. A person can stop and stop at any time, and go back to where they left off. H&R Block Deluxe Software is awesome! I would highly recommend it to anyone!
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
