It's easy to navigate, has a help button if you are unsure, it navigates you through the tax process. Does it give me maximum refund? I'm not sure but I'm pretty sure it would work out similarly.
Horrible experience this year....software continually crashed, would not let me submit my NY non-resident efile (even after CA resident efile was accepted, which the software said to wait for). It also seems like there are an increasing number of forms where I have to enter in all the information (whole form) instead of the software simply pulling the data....Sorry, but I am switching next year.
bought over a month ago have my taxes done but keeps rejecting my efile as apparently my birthday is wrong which it isn't getting frustrated and can't reach ssn to see why there is and issue as there was no issue last year when I efiled using Turbo tax
I love the program, but it lacks summary data while traveling through it. Places along the way where the program takes you into different entry sequences, the summation isn't available when back at the entry point, only the entry labels.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
I have used it several times in the past, mainly because of the price which has gradually increased. You must watch the features in the version you buy to make sure it has what you need. Filing your state return is an additional charge. It is fairly easy to use but has limited assistance should you have any questions. Even if it concludes stating there are no errors, check it yourself.
I am disappointed HR Block chose not to provide the ability to take tax write off for a home recharging station. This capability is in your competitor’s product and has been for at least a year. Either get with the times or fall by the wayside!
