Verified Purchase:Yes
I discovered many defects. HRB couldn't download data properly, couldn't print properly, couldn't handle a 1099-NEC, and messed up a form so that the IRS rejected my return. I'll be switching back to TaxCut.

I started using this software in 2009, possibly earlier, and the interface hasn't changed in all that time. This year, they started mucking with updates in February and March which changed and broke existing returns. I needed my MAGI to calculate a return of excess contributions before the 4/15 deadline, and because their software wasn't calculating QBI deduction correctly until days before the deadline, I wasn't able to calculate and process the excess returns in time. For the first time in my life, and I'm in my 50's, I had to file for an extension and deal with fines and penalties. This software cost me a lot of money and anxiety. 16 years using this software and now I will move on. I will not use this software in the future.
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to prepare, Hard to import documents

Been using this product for over 10 years now. It's consistent results, updates and overall performance keeps me returning year after year. They could improve on the State filing process and cost though.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Fast

I’ve been using the H&R program for probably 20 years. I do appreciate the fact that it’s fairly consistent from one year to the next as to the format. I tried another program one year from well-known tax company and was totally dissatisfied with this approach and rather disjointed framework. The only reason I do not give it five stars and honestly, the only real negative of the program is when you look at your tax summary, Particularly after there’s been a change the amount owed or amount owed or due. It only gives a very simple explanation in terms of taxes, paid, and taxes owed. It would be much nicer if it gave more of the detailed breakdown asked why the amount owed or due changed.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Fast

This product works well enough. I have been using it for years. It is still a bit difficult to follow at times. The Virginia State filing is not quite right as it provides an option to pay the amount owed to the state via ETF but it will not honor the option. I had to mail a check.
Pros: Fast
Cons: Hard to import documents
