Every year, I buy my H&R Block Software the exact moment that the year's new Software is available, and have been doing so for more than a decade. Because of the loads of Features, which facilitate my navigation through the Software with ease, I have not even considered using any other Software.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
This program is not hard to use. However, there are a few areas it does not cover. Those areas should be covered by the "premium" version, which including investments, rental, and self-employed. For example, Schedule K-1, the program says "The PTP (Public Traded Partnership) is beyond our scope." Users have to figure out some codes and manually fill in related forms.
I've been using H&R Block since you published booklets and ever since your went electronic and this was the WORST ever. Not only was it not self explanatory as in the past, buts its advice re separate vs joint was erroneous and caused me extra work and delay
I have used H&R Block for years now. I was a bit concerned with all the tax changes this year but they nailed it as usual! It's more than a just a tax prep software, you have a whole company and team behind you. The in-software support also educates you on the tax process so you have a understanding of the tax process. Can't say enough about this software package and company. - dc
I have tried two other companies and found that your product is far superior in keeping up with all aspects of rental properties. I have been frustrated each year in the way the penalty for not having health insurance is done. This year my insurance premiums would have been well over 60% of taxable income and your program said I had to pay the $695 penalty. I had to work hard to get the penalty off. .
