Software is extremely intuitive and the description for when to use or not use a particular claim are detailed and extremely beneficial. I definitely feel H&R Block software is a fantastic tool for those interested in doing their own federal and state income tax return paperwork.
I have been using this software for about 40 years without disappointment. I will continue to use the product because is helpful enough for some in their high 80's.
Filing your taxes shouldn't be difficult and H&R Block software makes it easy. It simply asks you a series of questions, like "did you receive a W2 from an employer?" It you did you import it or type in the details. I've let my kids help me it's that simple.
I have recommended it. I switched from TurboTax a long time ago. Why - because Block was cheaper and it still is. I avoid the “free filing” claims. I want to be able to keep my return stored on my pc and not somewhere else where I do not have easy access. My only con would be the cost of an additional state download. It cost more than the original deluxe plus state software that I preorder each year.
