I'm an accountant so I don't rely on the program for tax advice. I just use it as a tool to prepare a couple of returns for my family and file them electronically. I compare it to a spreadsheet where I've estimated my tax liability to be sure I understand and agree to what the program calculates. I buy the basic version and don't buy the state program since in my state it's easy to file the return online.
This software was so hard to use, I could not believe it. Yoo had hidden costs that shocked me. So the chances of me ever using your software of services again are slim and none and slim is headed out of twon
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to prepare, Hard to import documents
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

As an Illinois resident, we can file for free directly with the state. We can also share the free federal file with our adult children, who also have simple returns. This is a great value for the price.
I have used HR Block software for the past 5 years and this year my calculations were not accepted by the IRS. More control needs to be added to the summation.
