The software did not fully support all forms as advertised. This caused me to file paper forms adding security risk and delaying my refund.
Cons: Time consuming, Doesn't maximize refund, Hard to prepare, Hard to import documents
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I needed to include form 5329 to request a waiver of penalty, but the software would not allow that and also e-file. I decided to e-file without form 5329 and then mailed my 5329 form to the IRS. The IRS processed the request and refunded the penalty. I don't know why I could not file electronically with form 5329 and the software did not explain. Could be better.
I have had to pay a fee the last couple years for tax underpayment and I wish that this product could address this issue. I have used the software the last few years.
I’ve been using it for years while family members pay an accountant to do their taxes. I rent out my homes and follow the software menus. I feel I have less of a chance of an audit because the program calculates the math, not me. If I send it online, there are no errors.
I have been using H&R Block tax software for about 10 years and have never had an issue. I have recommended the Block software to several friends and the ones who took the advice always tell me it worked for them.
