As usual, HR Block hits it out of the ball park for self-doers. The software is excellent year over year, which has kept me as a loyal user for nearly 2 decades. Easy, simple and safe/secure. Taxcut has my full confidence which is difficult to gain and keep, but they keep it up wonderfully.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents
Suggest that future you allow two state returns (for current price) as many of us require filing two states. New internet tax products (ie Free File) allow filing multiple states for one price.
Been using HRB for YEARS and will never change. The tools are helpful when itemizing. I have a pretty simple return, but the step-by-step sequential process makes this the ultimate easy-to-use tax return software. Finished my entire return in less than an hour. If you're using someone else's tax prep software, just know that you're doing so at your own risk.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
