Had a problem . I waited two months for word from the IRS that my return was accepted. Went back through my document and discovered it was sent to them without my 2017 income summary. Somehow I missed that input and I guess the software missed it also. I had saved my 2017 file so that info was available. With in a couple of hours the IRS notified me that they had accepted my E-File.
Two problems. 1. When E-filing my return I received a ms that I should override/delete a worksheet created by the program and put the data on a different worksheet. But overriding would prevent E-filing. No way is suggested to work around that dilemma. 2. Program saved my return as a PDF I think but I was given no opportunity to choose where on my computer this PDF would be located. I think my return was saved as PDF somewhere but I cannot find it on my computer.
When I started to put the data from my K-1 information into the program, the program responded by saying: " Publicly traded partnerships are subject to special rules that are beyond the scope of the program this year". So, does that mean the software will be able to support it next year? Or when? It doesn't say. Would recommend if you don't have K-1's.
I efiled, it bounce and when I checked why about 10 things had been deleted from the copy I saved. I re-entered the data and now have refile, hope it works this time
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to prepare, Hard to import documents
I have used HR Block (Tax Cut) for many years. It works well. The last few years the pages were larger than the screen and required manipulating to move through the input.
