I did encounter problems with K-1 and Schedule E
on March 31, 2018
Posted by: Lawrence41
Although it doesn't make any difference in my case, the interview for K-1 does not ask about the "Final K-1" or Amended 'K-1" boxes. The generated K-1 work sheet has entries for these and I manually marked the correct box in Form View.
I was told by a professional who did trust 1041 taxes that I should file a Schedule E with part III filled out to show the trust name and EIN. I only had long term Cap gains (box 4a) data on my K-1 from the trust. This did not cause a Schedule E to be generated. I forced a Schedule E out by, during the interview for K-1, entering $1 for K-1 box 6 and $-1 for box 7. That generated a Schedule E and I overrode the + and - 1's to zeros on Schedule E before printing.
Pros: Easy to install, Easy to prepare, Easy to import, Fast
I would recommend this to a friend!

Each year this download becomes later. I have had to resort to another program to print my 1040ES forms. Bah Humbug!
Pros: Easy to install

Satisfied Multi-year User

I have used several tax preparation programs over the years. Each is slightly different and requires getting accustomed to, I think, but this one has done all I need for the past few years, is pretty straight forward, less expensive, simple and free to efile, and fully satisfactory for my needs.
Pros: Easy to install, Easy to prepare, Fast
I would recommend this to a friend!

Complete tax program
on April 7, 2018
Posted by: hns70
I like how H&R Block handles all of my taxes. Only one change that needs to be made; at the end where we are given the option to print for our records, it's great that you pre-check (select) the forms we need to keep, however, don't lock it so that we cannot unselect any of the forms. I know that we can go down and pick the forms that we want, but then we have to wade through all of it to pick out what we need (e.g. we do not need to print the filing instructions again).
Pros: Easy to install, Easy to fix issues, Easy to prepare
I would recommend this to a friend!

Update issues
on April 10, 2018
Posted by: Tank011
Every time I tried to open the program it would get stuck in looking for updates. I finally figured out that if I disconnected from the internet, it would open. I could then connect to the internet and update. After the update, it would again get stuck, so I would have to end the program, disconnect my internet and restart the program.
After that, it worked fine (I think). Maybe I should do it manually to make sure. I've used this program for years and this is the first time I have had these issues.

I have used H&R Block software for the past few years and find it to be accurate and easy to use. Having prior year information already entered makes the process speedy. E-filing is so quick and easy.
