Consistently oriented in favor of the tax payer rather than IRS. Others do not orient their programs that way. It's the way H&R interprets the tax laws and the software reflects that.
I used to pay a tax professional to prepare my taxes since my tax situation is complicated, but never again. My income requires using extra forms that the average taxpayer doesn't need, but H&R Block software makes it very easy.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents, Fast
The state would not accept my return electronically. Unspecified errors. The software simply directed me to fix the errors and resubmit, without identifying the errors. Not helpful.
I have been using H&R Block since 2016. I get the Premium version and find it very satisfactory for all my tax needs. I highly recommend this tax software.
I have used this tax software for over 20 years. It is very easy to use. I am a list maker and tend to check things off as I do them. The flow of the questions and requests for information seem to flow naturally.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents, Fast
This software is clearly the bare minimum with little support. It gets the job done if you know EXACTLY what you are doing. All in all a very poorly run company but it did get the job done.
