I liked the software. Been using it for years. However, this year it messed up my State return. The software calculated a incorrect value and would not let me correct it. I reached out to support and they just told me to print and mail my return. Next year I will be using different software.
Pros: Easy to import documents
Cons: Time consuming, Doesn't maximize refund, Hard to prepare
For most taxpayers, HR Block software is easy to use. The software is designed in an interview fashion similar to what a Tax Pro would ask if you had your return prepared by someone else. My only suggestion for someone preparing their own return, is to read the questions carefully. An incorrect answer will give you an incorrect result.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
