I have used H&R Block Deluxe for many years and loved it. However, the portion that deals with the K-1 form is terrible and doesn't match and is extremely difficult to fill out. After 20+ years I still don't have a clue whether I'm completing it correctly or not.
Cons: Time consuming
I would recommend this to a friend!

I still get upset entering the same thing every year when it's suppose to transfer everything from last year. I also get upset at why there's questions on the state form asking about something entered on the federal form. It should all transfer over.
Pros: Fast
Cons: Hard to prepare

Two problems with fed info transferring to Alabama return. And no way to contact you to explain the situation. I would think you would appreciate knowing you had mistakes in your software. And I’m sure that most Alabama residents would not be aware that they were paying extra taxes.
Cons: Doesn't maximize refund

Very disappoint in this year’s software. I’ve used H&R Block Deluxe +State software for years and years and never had a problem UNTIL this year. The program just wouldn’t “save”. I’d work on it for a couple of hours, try to save it and then when I went back to open it, all the work I’d done had disappeared.I tried redoing it a couple more times with the same result: not saving newly entered data. Finally, I called the H&R Software customer help and the woman said others had had the same problem. I spent over an hour on the phone with her and we seemed to figure out a work around and it seemed to work so I finished and e-filed; but, then there was an error message after e-filing and when I went back to correct the error, the “saved" data was gone again so I had to start again and re-e file. It finally went through but cost me “pulling out my hair” and tons of wasted hours entering then reentering data just to get it e-filed. I’m only hoping that when I import this year’s data into next year’s software, these problems don’t rear their ugly head once again. Maybe I need to try TurboTax next year??
Pros: Easy to import documents
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to prepare

The tax software works fine but the text is small and lettering color is grey so it can be hard to read. The screen layout doesn't support increasing the font size very well because the NEXT button and some of the text disappears off the right side of the screen as thentext size increases. If you have K1s, it can be hard to figure out where to input the data, but that may be true with Turbo Tax as well
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents
