Used for several years with no issue. This year there was an error in the programming related to W2's and 1099-R forms. If more than one was entered, the second or third would replace the first value in the first form entered resulting in a calculation error in the tax. The prevent the error, the forms had to be entered in reverse order; third, second, first to prevent overwriting of the first form. This should have been fixed in an early update but apparently was not. Occurred after all updates were applied.
Pros: Easy to prepare
Cons: Doesn't maximize refund

I have been using H&R Block tax software for a long time... well before TaxCut changed its name to H&R Block. With only a few exceptions, I have been confident that the product has produced a tax return that is accurate and fair.The interview process allows me to prepare my return in only a few hours (even less, since it has been best for me to take the standard deduction.
The only annoyance has been when I loaded my 1099s from my brokerage account. Each transaction is reported, even though I have the option to group transactions into long- and short-term. Then, when the review happens, the program flags each of the uploaded transactions as needing review., and there is no way to delete a block of transactions
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast

I would have liked to just skip the deductions part and go straight to Senior Standard Deductions! I have been doing my own tax’s for many many years… Also the Bailey deductible for State was not too clear!!!
Pros: Easy to import documents

1. I mistakenly double entered a 1099R with same numbers and you check did not catch this. 2. Fidelity issued revised 1099's on April 14 after I electronically filed taxes. Now I need to file amended New York State taxes and the program does not handle IT201X
Pros: Easy to prepare

Great intuitive features, although it would be nice to have the software calculate tax efficiency from filing married filing separately automatically. Also font sizes can be improved.
