I e-filed through the desktop software during the HR Block outage on 4-15-2024 and received bad gateway error. I tried again and received the same error. Subsequently, I received two emails from HRBlock. 1) return rejected. 2) return accepted. However, in the software program, the e-file status is not filed. The program was updated with an information box explaining the error and instructing me to e-file again. However, I checked the IRS "where's my refund" website and the IRS status is "return received". I need a software update to reflect the correct e-file status. Very disappointed in the quality of this product. Also, in general, the program does not support some basic items relative to K-1's and Schedule C's.
Pros: Easy to import documents
Cons: Hard to prepare
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Pros: Easy to prepare

Thank you for taking time to provide a rating! We're happy to see that you had a fantastic experience. We appreciate your business and look forward to seeing you again next tax season!
Was trying to submit return on April 14. For HOURS, I was getting an error message. There was a server issue. Had to stay up well past midnight and even, then never showed it was submitted. However, I got emails saying it was submitted and accepted. I wasn't even sure if I could trust that. I should be able to file at any time on any day without issue. Not reliable and won't use again. I also don't think there is a lot of help or information provided when you're confused about something. I don't want to have to chat, call, or go online. Explain it clearly in the software so I can move on.

I have used H&R Block Tax software in the past with no issues. This year I cannot say the same. Spent numerous hours trying to fe-file to only get error message after error message because their servers were having problems. Then I spent hours waiting online to speak with a human to find out why the software wasn't working properly. Waste of my time.
Cons: Time consuming

Horrible service. I tried to e-filon April 15th. I kept getting an error message, but it didn't not say to not try again. I was charged 8 times, because their system was not running.

Not to good. I was upset when I could not e-file my forms. Apparently a problem with the H&R servers on 4/14 and 4/15. Had to print and mail. Also got a message saying we know we have problems do not call.
