DIrect Deposit Glaring Oversight for '25 Returns
on March 5, 2026

I have used H&R Block Home Premium for years, but this year it disappointed in a fairly big way. The return, due to the death of the taxpayer, had to sent via USPS and signed by the two personal administrators, including a document appointing them. When printing the HRB provided 1040-SR for mailing, there was no space for providing banking information on the form, and that information was not requested by the program. I mailed off the return two days ago, only to find a "reminder" online that no paper checks will be issued fpr 2025 returns by the IRS. I can only guess that the IRS will reject the entire return submission due to the lack of banking info, and send it all back to us eventually. WHY WAS THAT SPACE FOR DIRECT DEPOSIT OMITTED??? This is a glaring and annoying oversight. As the taxpayer is deceased, I can't correct this via an online Login.gov account. I am so disappointed!
Cons: Hard to prepare
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Your software doesn't work efficiently on a MAC. The customer has to figure out too many work arounds. I called 3X and every person was very nice but they could not help until I spoke to a supervisor who gave me some hints but that should not be necessary. You are making it too difficult for an MAC user, not the way customers should be treated.
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to prepare
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I have used this software program for 20 years. It is consistent and very easy to use. It has helped me understand taxes in ways I would have never if I had just hired someone. The only complaint I have is that in the software there is a bug that has existed for the last several years. I have mentioned it but nothing ever got fixed. If you pay self employment tax installments you may run into it.
