I have purchased a least 8-10 years of H&R Block software. In all cases it has performed exactly as stated and as I expected, which was very good. Absolutely no problems. I would recommend to anyone wanting trouble free software!
This program easily guided my along the tax path, which is no small feat since I have to navigate foreign earned income credit. It was a positive experience & helped me to complete this task.
The H & R Block software's interview does an adequate job of gathering data for most tax returns but discerning taxpayers will need to look beyond the interview. For example, in the interview questions for completing Form 5695 (Residential Energy Credit), it only asks about solar energy, not geothermal heat pumps. Had I not known that there is a 30% federal energy credit for installation of geothermal heat pumps and gone into Form 5695 to fill it in manually, the H & R Block software interview would have led me to believe that, because I did not install new solar equipment, I did not have a federal energy credit. I would have missed out on the 30% federal energy credit for geothermal. The interview should be updated to ask about geothermal heat pump installation.
