I've used H&R Block software for a long time and have always been happy with it. Since I've moved from Windows to Mac, this was my first time using it on a Mac. It worked really pretty well for the most part. But every time the application would attempt to import my W2 from their databases, the entire application would crash with no error message. Have seen those type of crashes for about 15 years on software. I couldn't really find a quick way to contact support about it - so I eventually decided it would be faster to enter things by hand than trying to get H&R Block to fix it.
Used Premium for years due to owning a rental property. Sold rental in 2017 after 40 years. Not sure if program handled the long-term capital gains tax correctly and was unable to access Live Chat to discuss it. Was also unable to print the page that showed the Submission Acceptance number.
I have had a business for years. I loaded my prior years return to start with. I entered my business data for the current year The software lost my business data. it allowed me to file my return without even checking vs the prior year to verify everything was right. Do not buy this product
