I’ve used the product for about a decade now. This is the 1st year that I experienced issues with importing from TDAMERITRADE. All of my trades have descriptions that look like 1200000000. What the heck is that nonsense. TDAMERITRADE said the issue is with HRBLOCK. It’s 21Mar and it is still broken. Another issue was with the TXF import of my 1099-R for my Roth conversion. (Had to use the TXF import feature because the download feature was faulty). The software put my account number in SSN field on the form instead of my SSN! Luckily, the software eventually caught the error during the final final verifications before electronically filing my return. All the prior checks missed the mistake. I don’t know what is going on at HRblock this year but they need to hire some better programmers.
I've used Block tax software for many years. It truly makes taxes easy, by using last year's data to jump start the process. The sub-app for doing charitable contributions is simply great.
I switched from TurboTax to H&R Block over ten years ago. I was unhappy with TurboTax’s pricing for basic tax filing. H&R Block provides good value for the price and is easy to use. I would recommend it to others who file their own taxes.
WARNING! IT WILL NO LONGER FOR MANY OF US TO USE THIS SOFTWARE NEXT YEAR! According to their website, windows 10 will be REQUIRED for the software to function next year. That leaves the 35% of us windows users who still use windows 7 plus the users of windows 8 in the lurch -- THE SOFTWARE WILL NOT RUN AND YOU CAN EXPECT BIG PROBLEMS IN GETTING YOUR MONEY BACK IF YOU FIND THAT OUT AFTER YOU DOWNLOAD THE NEXT VERSION. I have exclusively used and recommended this software for 15 years, so I don't know where that leaves me, but it clearly is NOT with H&R Block.
