There is no good excuse for having relatively common reporting requirements that are "beyond the scope of the program". Still a good program, overall, but H&R Block needs to get their act together and fix the weaknesses with additional capabilities, and better instructions for any remaining rare instances that require manual entries.
You guys need to circle these dates on the calendar next year. Pretty important to have enough capacity for people to efile. Also, don't lie that it was a 'small number of users'. It was a lot. Worst experience with normally good software.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I am very disappointed this time. I had trouble when I tried to efile. I did it three times before I can submit. One of my household to file with TurboTax at the end.
Pros: Easy to import documents
Cons: Time consuming

I used to be very confident in the accuracy of my H&R Block returns, but it is now more complicated to use and I am no longer sure if I answered all the questions correctly.
Additionally, it doubled counted one income item, despite many attempts to get it to only count once, and I had to override. Fortunately, it did not prevent me from efiling.
I have used this software for several years. My husband has a home-based small business, and this software walks us through the process and helps us claim all possible deductions. It has saved us from the cost of hiring and paying a tax consultant. It is easy to use, clear, directs us to other resources as needed, and carries our information from one year to the next.
I have been using your software for over 10 years. With the ever changing tax laws, it is always appreciated for your guidance in filing an accurate return.
Thanks!!!
Pros: Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
