The IRS return was good. The state portion was tricky and I have yet to receive my refund from NY state. It’s been more than 21 days.
Pros: Maximizes refund
Cons: Time consuming

I’ve used H&R Block software for over 10 years, the last 4 years using the MAC software. During the last 2 years I’ve had trouble pulling up the software after shutting down and logging in later. It won’t start when clicking on the icon or when using Finder. I’ve tried to use “start on login” which doesn’t help. The only way I can get back in is actually clicking on the saved tax file I was working on . I then get a message that I closed out incorrectly or something similar. I’m actually considering changing to Turbo Tax just because of this issue,
Other than that I like the software and find it easy to use.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents
Cons: Time consuming
I would recommend this to a friend!

It wouldn't let me import a large consolidated 1099 from Fidelity, because there were too many transactions (> 2000). And because of that, it wouldn't import the rest of my Fidelity 1099s. And there is no way to import from pdf files on my computer. So I had to enter them all in manually. Not fun!
Cons: Hard to import documents

The software is easy to use. Questions are clear and do a good job of guiding through the various tax topics. The help topics I consulted also had clear and useful information. The one issue I found is that if you have an ID protection PIN through the IRS you are not prompted via the preparation questions nor during e-file to enter the PIN. I forgot that I had one and tried filling without the PIN which created problems.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Fast

Bob, we’re happy to hear you had a great experience. We appreciate your business and thank you for the valuable feedback.
Bought the State package and it will not launch. When I try to do my state taxes it requires me to update the application. When I do this, it puts me in a loop. Says it can't update and then requires me to update to proceed. Help menu did not offer any solutions.
