Two persistent bugs spoil an otherwise five star rating: One, the printing at the end is confusing as to when you print a backup, and the filing instructions should be separate - no need to waste paper on the file copy. Two, the Michigan return has all the information to decide if the pension is taxable but leaves it to the filer to decide. If I have to consult an accountant, then I'm wasting money on the program. I've pointed this out every year, but it never gets fixed.
The program is good for simple taxes but not for a person retired and getting social security benefits. I had to pay back taxes because the program didn't have the forms to complete plus the directions were vague. The only way a person can get help is through paying an additional fee.
Easy to use, no learning curve. Handles all my stock and bond transactions. Allerts a user if a mistake is made. I'm glad I switched to Block from the other software that I had been using for years.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
