I've been using this product for more than 15 years - that says something!
If your taxes are simple OR you understand where your money comes from/how it is categorized, this is the product for you. If you want to throw all of your receipts and bills in a box - hire an accountant. I believe that it is important to know HOW to do your taxes, by hand, then chose to use a product like H&R Block to make it easier by adding the columns and reminding you of important deductions or sources of income.
Warning -- if you use State tax credits or something else funky, this product will do the calculations; however, you will need to print and mail in the forms to the state.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents
I would recommend this to a friend!

We’re so happy to hear you had a good experience. We appreciate your business, and thank you for the valuable feedback!
I’ve used the software for more than 5 years. The interview format is easy to use and seems comprehensive. I’m not happy that as a valued repeat customer if I click on one link it costs me $5 more than another link from a different promotion. Charging me extra for state filing is a problem. I already paid for software to file my taxes. It feels like a rip off.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Fast
I would recommend this to a friend!

In general very good. Additionally, I would like to see a further explanation of what expenses are deductible and which are not, for example, Medicare Supplement Insurance.

Have been using HRB tax software since they bought out the brand I use to use (TaxCut). In total I have been using tax software for over 35 years. I prefer standalone tax preparation software that is why I still use HRB. I'm disappointed that they are beginning to partner with Google, because I fully understand Google's business model (collecting personal information for resale and targeted marketing) and the fact the Google has been hit with so many European lawsuits for privacy violations. I'll be watching how close HRB and Google become. After all the years of using HRB tax prep software, I would be reluctant to have to change vendors. Will have to see what becomes of the trend to partner to Google.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I received a letter from the IRS that I had understimated my tax penalty. I was very surprised that H&R Block program was not able to determine this. I also had to pay interest.
