your 2016 AGI + Sign Your Federal Return

Your 2016 AGI: You state: Since you filed with us last year, we've already entered this for you. IT WAS NOT ENTERED though I filed with you last year. Took me awhile to figure it out since the IRS rejected my Return. I thought that the AGI amount was hidden! Sign Your Federal Return: By creating a 2017 PIN, you're signing your return and agreeing to the e-file disclosure document. PIN (empty box) any 5-digit number. I thought you wanted a brand new number vs. using every year the same 5-digit number. This is very confusing!
I bought H&R Deluxe and it did not catch errors that my SS pmand recorded from my W-2s did not have excess SS taxes but numbers of what I paid were transferred to excess SS paid. This resulted in my e-filing a return that claimed I was due thousands of dollars in a refunded when in Fact I owe $3,000. But the software to Amend a return was not available until a future update. I am so disappointed that it did not catch the error and that the software I was sold did not include the ability amend the Fed Return before the refund I did not deserve was deposited in my account and I do not know how to give back the refund I do not deserve.
I've used this software for many years with no problems and have always recommended it to friends. No more. Exasperating to use. Would not work with supplied CDs. Would not work with Chrome. Glitchy when it would work.
Cons: Hard to fix issues, Hard to install, Hard to import
The software does walk me thru 1040X, but at end does not Print the 1040X. It prints the complete 1040 with updated amounts, but this is not proper. I have used H&R Block software for many years; this is most likely the last time.
I got a w2 a week after I e-filed taxes this program said I could not e-file amended file as I changed it and I was not sure I done it right when I closed it out it said your amend file has been e filed. Not enough information on amend tax. Hard to go back to file I have been looking for. Gave it a low rating because I had a problem with amend tax.
The program stated that I had completed both federal and state. I did not have internet service where I was at. So I travel ed 9 miles one way to where I could access the internet. I sat down where I left off thinking Things will go quickly since the CD program said I was ready to efile. Then program then states that I need last years AGI or there will be a problem filing with the IRS. I am all set to file and last years return is 9 miles away. When your program says I am finished and ready to file, then you shouldn't be asking for additional information afterwards. It meant traveling an additional 18 miles for me. That question could have been easily asked at the beginning and not as an afterthought. This is my first time with Block and probably my last.
