I have always purchased the CD but this year I tried downloading the software. Didn't work well and had to call for help and another download of software. I sole a hone and moved to another state. The help for these were not available until further in the return, after I completed hours of work surcharging past home improvements which were not needed. Other problems were not clearly available and after a 92 minute wait on a help call I was disconnected when the agent put me on hold. The follow up proved to be useless so I have to go to a company to file..
This is my 5th year using H&R Block Deluxe. It handles my stock activity with ease. It gives me some peace of mind that Uncle Sam will accept my return.
This software has a great interface and leads one through all of the IRS questions and requirements. However, there is one question, unlike the 50 other very special situations that don't apply to 99.5% of people using this software yet the questions are presented in the tax software, the question missing, "Did you receive a notice from the IRS with a Identity Protection PIN" Instead one is forced to review each for the IRS tax forms to find the spot to include this IP PIN. After a rejection from the IRS, and a 40 minute search. BTW the How to Correct instructions are wrong and lead to a dead end search. Finally found the spot to add pin down with the signature location on the IRS Form.

I completed the Block tax software interview questions and attempted to submit both the federal and the state returns. My stste return was rejected, so I examined the generated forms and found that I had mistakenly included the amount of tax witheld in the question for "Estimated tax payments". I had to go back to the Federal tax interview to correct that problem. After I did, I then re-submitted both the federal abd state returns. The federal return was accepted, but the state return was rejected. I examined the summary for the state return and found the tax witheld was still doubled. I tried repeated to correct the error, but was unable to submit the state return with the correction. I was able to print the state return with the correct figures. So, settled for a "snail mail" submission.
Have used H&R Block program for 20 yrs. now. This year it will not save as a PDF file very disappointed!!! Last year I had issues with the program also. NOT impressed the last 2 tax seasons.
H&R Block seems to come up with Ingenious ideas to complicate doing your taxes. For example, processing the personal info. The software informs me the information didn't match last year's return. After review info and found it hadn't changed, the software wouldn't advance to the next page. After refusing to except the info, I realize to skip this window and move forward. Really!
