Being independent and in my 80's the H&R Block tax software is easy to understand and use. I have used this software for many years and enjoy the trust and backup it offers. One drawback I do not care for is that the cost of the State filing is not included with the total purchase price of the program.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents
Still looking for a feature that summarizes all of the input numbers to make it easy to double-check keyed in entries and selections. Some codes and code values (e.g. code V, "Stmt") still not properly handled in the software.
I have used H&R Block for many years with consistent ease. The software is easy to use and handles all of the different elements of my tax reporting requirements. It makes tax preparation a 2 - 3 hour process instead of a 2 -3 day process.
