I have used H&R Block software for many years, now. Although it is generally easy to use this year's program (for 2025) seemed more difficult than normal. The navigation was not as clear as usual, and the help info really didn't work well.

Very unhappy you have been selling my private confidential information to BIG data companies after paying a high price for your software. I thought I was buying personal security.

Fix the "Excess Accumulation" Default-checked Box!
on March 4, 2026
Posted by: Loyal User for 10 Years
from Upstate NY
Verified Purchase:Yes
The default checked box: "excess accumulation" for retirement income is incredibly confusing at best; at worst it can lead to thousands of dollars of income tax overpayment. The 1040 software should have a simple yes or no question to confirm that enough RMD was withdrawn. Instead, the questionnaire addressing "excess accumulation" is so badly worded that if the taxpayer mistakenly checks "Self" or "Spouse" instead of "Finished," a Form 5329 is generated and won't go away unless manually deleted. It is not advisable for your average user to delete forms. My husband attempted a workaround by inputting $0 for excess accumulation, and the software still produced nearly $8,000 in additional tax! We had to start from scratch with a whole new return. We shudder to think what a less sophisticated or sharp-eyed user might overpay in taxes. And how would they benefit from HR Block's accuracy guarantee? The IRS is not going to tell them about a mistake made in the IRS' favor!
Cons: Hard to prepare
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
