Expectations reached based on prior years of using H&R Block software. At times, the walkthrough questions seemed redundant, but I trusted that the appropriate behind-the-scenes forms were completed. Upon final review all seemed well.
Was easy to use, but said my taxes were paid with filing extensions and didn't file extensions and didn't follow through with sending payment. I called irs today and still owed the taxes plus penalty!!! Very disappointed with accuracy.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This product works ok for federal taxes, but state products vary widely. The DC version is a disaster.

I am a volunteer tax counsellor and am required to use TaxSlayer software. And many times I have wished I could use H&R Block tax software instead. The only thing I don't like with H&R Block software is with form 8949 and the inability to use the multiple transactions in a single row (M) AND nondeductible wash sales (W) simultaneously, when reporting covered transactions. I am forced to subtract the wash sales and report them separately. So this is much easier to do using other software. But I like everything else about H&R Block and choose it for my and my sisters personal taxes instead of filing free using the software I use as a volunteer.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
