I've used H&R Block deluxe to file my taxes for many years now. This past year I unfortunately waited until Sunday April 14th to submit them. At that time the software gave an error which persisted well into April 15th - Tax deadline day. This caused unwelcomed stress. The error persisted until late in the afternoon and to me this was unacceptable for a tax filing software company.
I could not have had a worse experience. I wasted many hours trying to send my return without success. Does not even deserve one star.
Cons: Hard to import documents
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I have used the H&R Block tax preparation software for many years and the software imports key data from the previous year, making return preparation easy and quick. Electronic filing is quick and easy, and free for the federal return. However, Alabama would not accept my electronic filing this year despite it being essentially the same as previous years. I suspect it is an issue with the state revenue department and not the H&R Block software.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents, Fast
The issues began with the fact that it would import last years return. I even got the Helpdesk involved and they couldn’t get it to work either.
I couldn’t download any updates, so I had to download the application again.
You can check my service log for details on my other issues.
I was very disappointed in this year’s system.
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to prepare, Hard to import documents
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
