I couldn’t electronically file due to a mismatch of data with the IRS and the itemized inputs didn’t work at all! This has never happened before but now it has and they don’t have a fix for next year!
Pros: Maximizes refund
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to fix issues, Hard to prepare
Completing my tax return was a very good experience. I have used this software for many years. My complaint...I can never get it to e-file. This year I completed the return...it accepted my e-file...then I got a notice from the IRS that my tax return was rejected...I had to print and mail. Fed and state.
I’ve use this program since before it was H&R Block tax cut. Many years. I have no reason to wish to change, it has always done exactly what I wanted it to do.
Pros: Easy to install, Easy to fix issues, Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import, Fast
Have used HR Block software for several years. However, the Basic with state has gotten overpriced. With simplified tax return and larger Standard Deduction, I can do it quickly manually.
Pros: Easy to install, Easy to fix issues, Easy to import, Fast
