Block is the best value compared to other tax software. I have used Block for decades and my returns are always accepted first time. Block guides me from start to finish making sure the filing is done correctly.
Switched over from TurboTax years ago. More reasonably priced and not as invasive. Easy to follow interview style, thorough with the right version and does the job.

It's been a long, long time since I've filed on paper, now that software has come along to make the chore easier. It's reassuring knowing that the program won't let anything slip through the cracks.

There was a bug in the treatment of an inherited IRA distribution that took some time to be addressed. Besides that, it worked fine. I have been using the product for about 10 years and this is the first time I have encountered a bug, that I am aware of. The telephone support was exceptionally good.
