Wasted a full day inputting 1099-B 4 pages worth because couldn't get import to work. Then figured out the password input for Edward Jones choice is truncated to 20 characters. Edward Jones allows up to 60 character passwords and I had 36 length. It was cut off, but I couldn't tell since there is no option to actually see the entered password, just *. So login was failing. Had to change password to 19 length to get import to work.
Stupid coding errors like this make me wonder about all the other calculations. I came to HRBlock after TurboTax messed up. Guess I'm going back to them now.
Cons: Hard to import documents
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Guidance

My CPA of 29 years retired and I worried about finding a new one. I researched all software products and decided on H&R Block thinking that if I got into trouble, there are plenty of kiosks to visit in person. However, the program's guidance gave me confidence. Yes, I worked it and re-worked my return many times. I learned so much about tax issues that I never knew before. It was kinda fun and will definitely use it again next year.
I used the H&R BLOCK SOFTWARE for the last 4 years.This 2019 H&R BLOCK software guided me to file my 2019 income tax faster, easier and accurately than the previous years.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
Excellent product I’ve used for many years. Automatically imports prior years’ data, logical and provides explanations where needed. Never had a return questioned by the IRS. Highly recommend for personal returns.
Extremely well-organized and user-friendly! It is especially easy to shuttle back and forth between topics and get help and answers. I have used this software effectively and happily for the past 20+years. I wouldn't go anywhere else!!!
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
