This is my 5th year with HR Block and I'm essentially pleased with it. I'm disappointed that the price continues to rise. Please don't let this software become unreasonably expensive like TaxAct and TurboTax has.
Pros: Easy to prepare
I would recommend this to a friend!

Fine program for the usual stuff, but for unusual?

Verified Purchase:Yes
Reporting accrued interest on a bond purchase proved difficult. It was hard to find a place to enter info and when I found where to do so, the numbers on the Schedule B or worksheet came out wonky. We paid the interest in December, but received no interest on that bond until the following year. I'm not fully sure what the program did with the accrued bond interest, but it appeared to reduce our non-taxable interest even though the accrued interest was on a federally taxable bond. Regardless, the math didn't seem right. I wonder whether the glitch may have been due to the fact that the taxable interest reported on the 1099-INT was less than the accrued bond interest we paid. I'd say there is a problem with the tax software. It would help if IRS would require reporting of that info on the 1099-INT's. From internet comments, it seems brokerage firms often bury that info in the supplemental information and do not tell the customer what to do with accrued bond interest. IRS info seems to say that payers of accrued bond interest are to send 1099's to the seller of the bond, but we don't know who the previous owner of the bond was. I'd say that should be the duty of the brokerage firm.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to prepare
