8 have used H&R Block for more than 10 years and I would not change. It is fast and accurate I love having free additional files that family and friends can use this makes it a family thing and everyone is satisfied.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
I've been using the H&R Tax program for years and find it very convenient and easy to prepare just by following their dialog. I especially like the downloading of tax information from last year rather than having to manually fill out so much of the repeat information.
Since the government created a very complicated income tax set of laws, the money for these programs should come from the money owed in our tax filing. Other than the fact that I believe HR Block software is over priced, it is easy to use and to follow along. And even easier to use year after year.
Can't open previous years files for viewing. Had an issue with the state government and I needed to open a previous year and you can't access your original software download and the new version won't open the old files. Even if you have the product key it doesn't matter, you can't get the software. Backup more than just your tax files if you're going to use this software.
After fixing the problem they marked, they still wouldn’t accept it. I had to mail it and I’m still waiting for my refund (although, that’s the government’s fault).
I started using Tax cut over 20 plus years ago. I had my taxes done by a tax accountant. After they were done I decided to see if I could get a larger refund by buying Tax cut and after I did my taxes I had a larger refund.
