I've used HR Block for a long time. It's familiar. It does the job. Tax law is extremely complicated. This software helps simplify things, but it is still complicated to use. It's made to walk you through the process, but it is overly complicated to go back to complete something you've skipped or verify information you've put in. There are a few places where it said, "You have to fill out this form yourself." What? Isn't that why I bought this software? Then the form it gave me to fill out was disabled so I couldn't fill it out. (Something about health care insurance rebate.) There are a couple of places it says, "Let's look at XYZ..." Then it says, "We have all the information we need." Why tell me this, just skip it. So it's annoying, but it's ok. It's more annoying because I know that HRBlock lobbies congress to keep the tax laws complicated and fights any simple government tools.
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to prepare, Hard to import documents
I've used this software for 10+ years and the user inferface has not changed (which I guess could be considered a good or bad thing, but I like the consistency). Filing electronically works fine, no issues at all.
I have been using the H&R Block Tax Cut software since 2003! It is very user friendly, and have taught several friends how to use it to prepare their own personal income tax return. I love it, and would not consider switching to any other tax software.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents
I would recommend this to a friend!

I've been using your tax software for about 20 years and I've never had a problem. I've done taxes for other acquaintances and they're always impressed with the ease of use and the accuracy of the program.
