Significantly helps make tax filing easier. Some of the more complex issues (sale of property used for rental inc) were not handled totally correct, so had to make some adjustments.
I've used Block tax software for longer than I can remember, for my family and relatives. I always use the previous year's return as a starting point. I need Premium for our return, and it does fine for the others, too.
Pros: Easy to install, Easy to fix issues, Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Fast
I have been using H&R Block software, to file both my Federal & State income taxes, for the past 5 years. They maintain year-to-year continuity by accurately importing and updating the data; this makes filing a new return quite easy to understand. The software also gives periodic updates as and when they are available/needed.
Pros: Easy to install, Easy to prepare, Easy to import, Fast
