Asks all the right questions, has worksheets where required, and help topics available. This year's return was a bit complicated and I was going to seek professional assistance, but the Deluxe version had everything needed. It's easy to use, too, and constantly saves progress so there's nothing lost in a system crash. Overall, I find it's a reasonable price for a good product.
- If your finances are not complicated, It’s much less expensive than having someone do it for you. If you do not fully understand a particular tax rule you can get a better understanding by clicking on the ‘in-text’ blue link and reading a more in-depth explanation. - If your previous year’s taxes are on your computer or ‘Cloud’ storage, all of that information is filled in automatically which saves time and eliminates the possibility of most mistakes.
I was stuck in turbo mode for many years, but not annoyed enough to explore other options. That is, until last year after a major error occurred, confirmed by a CPA. Getting help from the turbo empire was an exercise in futility. H&R Block's software makes it so much easier to step through the process and provides easy-to-understand guidance along the way. My biggest concern was retrieving the year-to-year information embedded in last year's tax forms. H&R Block's software did so flawlessly, flagging imported information for verification. All was imported without error. I regret not having made the move years ago.
