Great product used for many years. But - I dislike very much there is no built-in PDF maker and the PDF995 takes me to an unknown website that is based on selling me a PDF maker and what is worse the PDF995 web site hijacked my print setup and put PDF995 as the default printer. Very bad. It takes away from my positive experience with HRBlock. HRBlock should include a PDF maker in their SW packages.
The 2016 Federal Tax return automatically filled in my AGI from my last year's filing through H&R Block incorrectly. When I filed electronically through H&R Block for 2016 the return came back stating my AGI from the prior year was incorrect. I had to find the override and put in the correct amount from copy of 2015.
I've use HR Block, Tax Cut, and Turbo Tax. My favorite program for giving accurate results is HR Block consistently over many years is the HR Block program.
Pros: Easy to install, Easy to fix issues, Easy to prepare, Fast
I've been using this tax software package since it was originally known as TaxCut (on an Atari 800 computer in the 80's)--so, for Lots of years. It's easy to understand and follow with lots of helpful information.
I gave it 4 stars because when I finished my return, I came to a screen allowing me to 'Backup' and 'Save as PDF' my return. The Backup went just fine, but I could not 'Save as PDF' unless I installed some PDF software. No Thank You. Windows has 'Print to PDF' as a default printing option. So... why am I not allowed to use that?
Pros: Easy to install, Easy to prepare, Easy to import, Fast
I bought this program about a week ago. It only took me a couple of hours to complete because of last years return was filled in for me. Just a few clicks and it was done.
I bought it online and finished in no time. Very simple directions help you through every question. Extremely happy, been using this program for years! Trust it 100%.
