Multiple times I had to stop and Google search for what the "next step" was asking for as I simply did not know what they were asking me for. There was also no "button" to click on that would provide an explanation of the item that I was having an issue with. Very frustrating. Otherwise I think this software package is simply MEH.
Pros: Easy to import documents
Cons: Time consuming, Doesn't maximize refund, Hard to prepare
I have a little bit of a complicated tax return as a college student with some investments. The majority of tax preparing software was charging me an arm and a leg in order to file my taxes until I found this useful solution that is both useful and dirt cheap. There might be a little bit of a learning curve to understand the software but once you get it you should be on your way!!! (You get 5 tax returns instead of 1)
Pros: Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
Have used the H&R block software for the past 5 years with no issues. However the 2022 edition had so many bugs that it took an extra week to get my tax return accepted by the US government.
Easy for to use, walks you thru it all. I love that it brings my data from last year, less typing = less mistakes. This has been my go-to tax software for several years and will be the one for the future!
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents, Fast
