I've been using the H&R Block Deluxe software for about ten years and I would generally say it is a good value. It's a little weak on specific clergy issues such as housing allowances from 403b plans and there are some places where the instructions refer you to IRS publications or to consult your tax preparer. I use the software specifically because I don't want to pay a tax advisor or try to understand IRS terminology. 2024 will probably be my last year to use H&R Block software since I'm done with Windows this year and moving to Linux. Unfortunately there is no H&R Block software for Linux. I'm hoping to use the IRS direct file online program.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Bought this program due to cost over Turbotax. One issure. Could not readily see how to move to the next task. Discovered the green box. Box should be labeled.
Pros: Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents
Cons: Time consuming, Doesn't maximize refund, Hard to prepare, Hard to import documents

A few flaws
on February 13, 2025
Posted by: DLM45
I have used this software before and it did my federal return this year very well. I had to paper file my state return and the instructions were not as easy to follow as the e-file instructions. I had a hard time finding all the correct directions for filing the state return.
Pros: Maximizes refund
Cons: Hard to prepare
I would recommend this to a friend!

Overall the product does exactly what it did year after year, walking me through the areas, no significant improvements. However this year it also failed. That is my e-file has been rejected, and the report back is "already submitted". I'm sure that is not the reason but there is no way to resolve this short of calling someone. Very disappointing and will not likely use in the future...
Cons: Time consuming
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
