I've used this software for 10 years, but as my taxes and my father's taxes became more complicated this software has become unacceptable. I had to directly fill out IRS forms even needed to print one out in the middle of things. And the help is terrible. I had to google almost everything to figure it out and often would up reading the Turbo Tax web page to get the help. I had to google acronyms because the H&R help didn't help. The IRS rejected my application with an error code that H&R didn't interpret. I have no trust in the program and doubt that they were done correctly. Next year it's going to be Turbotax. The state return was even worse.
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to prepare
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I felt like my audit review was very bad. It seemed to be a different tax return. It referenced my income 3 times in the audit risk. They seemed to be contradictory. My other family members did seem correct.
Pros: Easy to import documents

The program is fine for filing taxes but it lacks future year planning since it doesn't even offer state tax planning.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents
