I have used HR block for at least 10 years. It seems to do normal taxes ok but is not easy to use when you have a form you don't understand. The interview is ambiguous. it has not improved over the years. It should contain a roadmap so you have an idea what order things will be entered. It does 1099-int and 1099-div ok but goes brain dead for 1099-R. Navigation from a go to back to where you were is nearly impossible.
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to prepare

Overall I'm happy with the software. There were a few spots that that seemed more complicated than they needed to be. In the end it got my taxes done and turned in. So I'm happy.
Pros: Maximizes refund, Fast

Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear that you had a positive experience overall. While we aim for 5-star satisfaction, we understand that there may be areas where we can improve. We appreciate your business and value your input.
Word of mouth purchase. Happy overall. Itemized deductions and all categorizations would have been less confusing with more explanations would have possibly made it easier and more confident to file taxes on our own vs a cpa.
Pros: Maximizes refund
Cons: Time consuming

Bought after bad experience with TurboTax, hoping for a better product. So far, just average. I had to send my return out with an outstanding caution because your programers appear to have made assumptions that do not hold up to reality, with no way for the user to correct them. Also, loading the software, doing my return and attempting to send, it suddenly decided it was not up to date and it had to do that before I could finish sending.
Cons: Hard to prepare
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

PLEASE...make a big deal about entering your NEW(for the current year) IRS IDENTITY Protection Pin. I totally forgot to get new pins and entering them next to the signature box is MANDATORY. I had my return rejected twice for not entering my pins, for both for me and my spouse. Also...for Mutual fund Dividends Make a note to us that U.S. derived dividends MAY be state tax free.
