Easy to understand fast calculation. One problem the forms, we need to see how they appear needs to be more assessable. Tax law changes need to be able to process either way. Some are more tax savvy than others.
We have used this software for for more than a decade. We use it, our kids use it. It gets better every year. I like that I can take a picture of my W2 and upload PDFs. Saves manual entry and errors.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
like the software generally. gets a bit frustrating when search function doesnt yield any answers. for example i forgot to include 529 contribution so i had to go back. no obvious place for me to go back to so i searched within help section. no hits... really? i had to go thru several sections to finally find it. they need to improve that bit.
I've used H&R Block software in the past. It made completing my taxes easy. After gathering all my documents I was able to complete my taxes in one sitting.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents
Reasonably priced and handled ll my needs. The only negative was that it sat in a loop for 20 minutes the first time I tried to load it onto my laptop. When I removed the DVD and re-inserted it, the load program worked just fine.
