My 2018 tax -filing to the IRS was rejected because H&R Block only provided a 5 digit space for the PIN NUMBER when the IRS requires a 6 digit PIN NUMBER! YOU NEED TO REVIEW YOUR SOFTWARE BEFORE SELLING IT!!
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
i would give this zero stars, but the corporation requires a minimum of one star. i needed help this year and couldn't get it. additionally, the program showed me a cartoon at the end to say my audit risk was elevated due to a list of possible reasons, none of which applied to me.
I have been using this software for many years. I used to do my taxes manually before that. I would have to read the entire booklet of instructions before that. This takes all the stress of doing taxes away. The program leads you step by step by asking the appropriate questions. They will also help you if the return gets audited. It includes e- filing your return so you receive confirmation that the IRS has received it. If you are due a refund, you receive it quicker too. I recommend it.
I never thought that I was going to get an easy fine good and effective operating experience with H & R Block software because I was initially turning to them due to their knowledge of the tax return business and their reliability to service it. I was pleasantly surprised after signing up at their site that the software was well configured and easy to use. The graphics, the coloring scheme, the organization of each module and its efficiency make H & R Block software user friendly, affordable and effective.

I have been on soc sec disability and it was my first time filing strctly with soc sec as my income. I had my SSA 1099 icome form but could NOT FIND where to input the numbers !? Searching for the term by "social security" or "ssa 1099" or other descriptions wasted hours. I finally had to contact H&R block phone support for help. They said it was under SSA in the HELP area. Ok, that's fine. I never would have searched with the word SSA to find the answer. But people are subjective. To each their own. BUT WHY NOT ADD LIKE 3 MORE "EXACT SEARCH WORDS" IN YOUR HELP.
Add like 1. social security income 2. soc sec disability income 3. SSA 1099.
I would have given 5 stars if it wasn't for the lousy search results for finding where to enter my Soc Sec disability income. Just add a few words to the HELP INDEX and I never would have had to WASTE hours of my time and then ultimately have to call you.
I have been a customer since the very first software was published by the original company - TAXCUT. Every year since, I have purchased that software and continued when HR Block purchased TAXCUT. I really like how each year's data carries over to the next year, so that the same data doesn't have to be entered multiple times. The FEDERAL software is easy to follow and the help screens are great. Very easy to navigate through the entire software package..... THIS IS NOT TRUE FOR THE STATE PROGRAMS. I use NC and SC forms.The STATE SOFTWARE Packages ARE NOT easy to follow and navigate through the software. Help screens are ridiculous. One is pretty much on their own for STATE software, for the duration of the data entering process and is left "HOPING" that everything is correct. The cost for the state software, in my opinion is way too expensive for what the customer receives. I hope HR Block makes the STATE software work more like the FEDERAL software. The survey answers are based on both FEDERAL and STATE software packages (for example..STATES are Hard to Prepare and Time Consuming compared with the FEDERAL)...Survey needs to be done on FEDERAL and STATE separately.
2018 return was rejected because the AGI does not match IRS records. Review of IRS transcripts indicates that AGI, in fact, does match their records. Must mail return to IRS for additional scrutiny.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
