I have been using Taxcut/H&R Block tax preparation software from1992. It has been my only go to tax product due to it’s reliability and accuracy. Not to mention the ease of use and timely updates when tax codes are updated. Great product.
I will also purchase the State return next year. I manually filed my state return and made an error. The H&R Block software would have pre rented this.
Software seems to get easily confused, especially with expenses, since the recent tax changes. I often get multiple different results in the software. I've lost confidence.
I've helped friends with their tax returns and my h&r block has time and time again proven to be more detailed and it's instructions more clear than any other program especially the free ones. It also appears to be pretty darn ethical since it doesn't appear in news articles as having unfair practices.
We have used H&R Block software for the past 7 years. It is easy to use and especially convenient that it brings the prior year data forward to edit if there are changes.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents, Fast
