Even though I used to work as a trained tax preparer for Block, this program can be very confusing at times. I also HATE the way the program prints my return. It is VERY DIFFICULT to read. Even when I choose "Print and Mail" my return, it does NOT print the forms correctly.
Pros: Maximizes refund
Cons: Hard to prepare
I would recommend this to a friend!

I found much of the interview process straightforward. I struggled with areas that i was most unfamiliar with and the software basically said "fill in an amount" just where I needed the most help in figuring it out. I reached a few new milestones - RMD, for example. No help within the program - just go read the IRS documents.
Cons: Doesn't maximize refund, Hard to prepare

I have used your product for years but this year, it will not properly include my child tax credit. I have ran my information in several other programs, including TurboTax, and they include it correctly and get me a significantly larger refund in both Federal and Colorado state taxes!
Cons: Doesn't maximize refund

I filed and then received another tax document the next day. It took me three times longer to file amended federal and state returns than it did to do the filing. Doing the amended returns is NOT intuitive, and directions and new forms made no sense and looped back to what I had already done and wouldn’t let me send the amended federal return until suddenly it did, and the state amended return still will not send.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We have had many issues with trying to get our adoption credit to process correctly. We are intitled to the full credit because we adopted a special needs child in 2025, but every time we submit it, it kicks back in 5 minutes. We are 100% eligible for this credit.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund

As a longtime subscriber to HRB software, I knew just what to expect with the 2025 release. The entries followed a familiar progression that doesn't lose track of anything, and doesn't surprise. I do wish that the "lesser" versions would support the retiree who pays estimated taxes on Social Security. I did not wish to pay extra for the HRB Self-Employed version just to get built-in Interview prompts to report estimated taxes. So I searched around and found Schedule SE in the Deluxe version.
