H&R Block takes the complications out of doing taxes. The questions are easy to follow for complex tax returns. The import from financial institutions is a great feature to reduce data entry time and improve the accuracy of tax entry. Importing standard information from prior tax years is also a great time saver. When I review the resulting tax forms, I am surprised how complicated taxes have become. Without H&R Block tax software I would either have to spend days doing my taxes or take them to an accountant.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents, Fast
After preparing my return with HRBlock, I had the opportunity to help a friend do his taxes with a competitor's TT tax software. I found Block's tax questionnaire provided a much better walkthru for tax preparation, and the help feature was much more comprehensive.
I have enjoyed two years of H&R Block tax software and appreciate the well-designed process. As a senior citizen who still wants to understand things as long as I can, this software certainly helps me and many others as well.
Good product but I had very difficult time uploading and paying for the product. First two tries yielded no activation code appearing on my screen. On third try it appeared. However, I have now been billed for three copies. I reported it to my credit card company who has launched a charge dispute which has not been settled at this time.
