I Don't think there is a better tax program

It seems as easy as it can be. IRS doesn't make it simple but H&R guides you to push you to at least find the best answers. It is also very helpful doing many of the calculations for you.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents
I would recommend this to a friend!

Prior Billing of Tax Software w/o Customer Request

I'm not too sure why your company has started this new method of Prior Billing of Tax Software without first asking the Customer. I don't like this and may have to change to another vendor for future tax services. If I hadn't seen a charge on my credit card bill, I would not have known it was an automatic debit for this tax software.
Pros: Easy to prepare

Head-scratching errors that can't be fixed?
on April 17, 2022
Posted by: TaxedUser
from NY. NY
I've been using H&R Block Tax software for DECADES (started back when it was "better" known as "Taxcut" and the always 2nd place choice to the then reigning champ, Turbo Tax).
The thing I like most about the software is if you're organized with all the right needed documents (W2s, 1099s, local real estate tax document, receipts, etc.), have "simple" tax situations and are meticulous in going through the program's interview-style walkthrough of filing out taxes... well, the program works.
But the minute something "unique" comes up, you're pretty much hosed as the built-in "help" is not very clear or useful. (And go luck trying to get help online through tech support!)
This year (2021 filing), for example, I ran into a really bizarre issue preparing my elderly parents' return. They're both limited income retirees, nothing too hard, and the Federal return filed electronically without a hitch. But when it came to the (NY) State return, the program flagged a "missing entry" in a 1099-R form that "needed to be fixed" before it could be e-filed. Following the programs directions, I went into the electronic version of the form and tried to match it to the actual paper-based 1099 that my parents received.
Well, the actual PAPER form didn't have ANY entry or value in the box that the H&R Block program said that it needed in order to e-file.
Huh?
How am I suppose to put in "missing data" if there IS NO DATA reported to me on the official tax forms mailed to me? (That's like the program telling you there should be an amount in the "state taxes" box of your W2--even though your state doesn't collect income tax!)
OK. So, no e-filing of my State return. So, I try to go through the "print return to mail" process, when it comes to printing the actual return... EVERY SINGLE PAGE comes out stamped "NOT FOR FILING" in the corner.
Uh, but I just stepped through the "interview" process and CHOSE "file by mail." So how come what comes out of my printer is stamped "Not for filing" on EVERY. SINGLE. PAGE?!?!?!?
Pros: Easy to prepare
Cons: Time consuming
I would recommend this to a friend!

I am glad to still be using H&R Block. I messed up using the wrong file but was able to recovery and get my taxes file correctly looking thru my old programs. It’s important to pay attention to your file extensions. Thanks
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
