Year after year, the upgrades fail and I have to manually go out and apply them.

The windows version of the 2025 tax software would not install on my Windows 11 laptop. I ended up installing it on my wife's desktop computer that was still running Windows 10. Once installed, I was happy with the way the software worked.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents, Fast

The software continues to be perfectly fine for my needs. There are still a couple of quirks that should get ironed out, as someone who's not financially or computer savvy might get confused. Like at the final accuracy check, it asks you to verify entries you already made for retirement income. And the handling of RMD's is awkward; it tells you to only fill out one section if your didn't take the full RMD, but then in the accuracy check, it asks you to fill in that section anyway. Please fix these little glitches.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents
I would recommend this to a friend!

Ive been using hrblock tax software for many years. I like ut becase it does the msth part like calculating the tax for different incomes : ie capital gains, ordinary income, and the different definition of "Child". It does help if one understands some of the tax codes and definitions.

We’re so happy to hear you had a great experience. We appreciate your business and thank you for the valuable feedback.
Too esoteric,recondite, and abstruse for a tax return with many variables. Will not let me e-file state tax if I have to file an amended Federal tax return. Way too many cross-references. If I call up a Form to check a return, I cannot modify the return while the Form is still displaying. No feature for me to 'go back' from an entry without exiting the entire program and restarting it Once I have restarted it, it doesn't automatically go back to the page that was on. Cannot load an existing program in progress into a new computer, nor can I file this year's state tax return, unlike any investment program on the web or any 'cart' in any retail program. Cannot find a place to enter my 'code' after downloading the program on my new computer.
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to prepare, Hard to import documents
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
