This program made filing my taxes a quick and painless process. Uploading pdf files of my documents left very little room for human error and made the process go by much faster than I ever could have in trying to fill out all the information manually.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
This software assumes the user has a certain degree of knowledge in some areas like how to enter mutual fund foreign taxes paid from your 1099 DIV , insisted that I correct the worksheet by adding what country in box 8. And it was no help with guidance for the correct way to report noncovered mutual fund share sales with various purchase dates when the cost basis information is provided on 1099B. Both of these areas were very gray! Also could not figure out why it wouldn't let me print or file my state taxes, after researching i assumed it was because my federal efile was not accepted yet. Honestly I use this because it is cheap.
This is the 3rd year I have used H&R Block for my annual IRS taxes. It is much easier than Turbo Tax, which I never figured out. Outstanding software and easy to follow!
