Unlike the products of some other companies, the H&R Block software includes all of the forms I need. Some other companies will limit what forms you can fill out if you don't buy the top of the line product. In my case, I need a few of those forms for minor investment and self employment purposes; I don't need tons of elaborate guidance, just the ability to fill out the form for filing. H&R Block meets my needs in that regard. My only suggestion to H&R Block is that when they do provide definitions and explanations please accompany the tax specific language with an explanation in everyday language. In general the guidance is good but a little more use of common everyday language might help here and there.
Makes completing forms for investment income, capital gains, iras, much easier. Also does a great job of importing previous year’s data. You still need to be mindful and read the irs publications regarding you risk errors. I’ve used the software for many years now.
No longer confident in the software. Two years in a row now, we have had to account for adjustments that I thought the software would have at least warned us about. May not use it again next year.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents, Fast
Very easy to use. I’ve been using this software for years. But I wish the Thrift store value of contributions was easier to use and more comprehensive.
I have been using this software for over 20 years. Just go through the questions and before you know it you are finished. I then file electronically and receive confirmation within a day that the returns (federal and state) have been received.
