Customer Reviews for H&R Block Tax Software Premium 2024 - Windows, Mac OS [Digital]

2 Items about software. Twice after saving my work and trying to open it again the program said data was corrupt and both times I had to start over with a new file. The reason I upgraded to premium that I misread the ad I thought stated the a state file was included for free.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
I would recommend this to a friend!

Cannot handle more than 4 states on a W2

"Premium" software will not let you input more than 4 states on a single W2. As a consultant, I typically have to file returns for 3-6 states a year (had 5 this year). Because of this issue, I had to file all state and federal returns by mail instead of e-filing.
Another issue is that the software does not automatically print all forms needed for filing. The instruction sheet tells you which other forms need to be printed, but it won't do it for you.
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to prepare, Hard to import documents
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Too pricey for what you get. Hidden extra charges to e-file state returns. Payment option opens in Microsoft Edge browser which is just wrong. I clicked the option to print a receipt and the browser's anti-popup window shut everything down. Really poor that.
Pros: Easy to import documents
Cons: Hard to prepare
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Basically works fine, but the inputs for a Schedule E are a total disaster. It's difficult and confusing to enter E expenses. Anyone who has rentals or royalties probably has these organized so that the obvious thing would be to have inputs for "item A" income and expenses together, then "item B" income and expenses, etc.
Also, why on earth do you have to separately enter BOTH the amount of refund carried forward to next year and the amount you want to receive from the IRS?

Horrible for calculating estimated tax payments
on April 5, 2020

I have used H&R Block for quite a few years and prior to that used Turbo Tax. Neither of these are worth anything for calculating estimated tax payments. If you are going to let me give income amounts for the next tax year, you should at least use the information provided when calculating the amount of tax to be paid.
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to prepare
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Easy to use program and helps when the information from your last years return is automatically imported to the new tax period. Been using this program for years. Never do my taxes without it.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
