Unlike prior years, H&R Block this year allowed me to e-file my Federal, Kansas and Missouri income tax returns at the same time. In prior years, the software would only allow me to e-file my Federal and Missouri returns at the same time. During these years, I had attempted to also e-file the Kansas return at the same time, but the software produced an error message, of some kind, and stated that it could not e-file the Kansas return. This year, thankfully, I was able to e-file all three returns at once.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents, Fast
Prepared taxes effectively but any time I accessed help on my Block software, I had to shut down the browser and software to get out of the help system. I did not have an "exit" or "return" button on my help screen! (Using Microsoft Edge browser software)
My husband John is actually in memory care. Prior to 2020, he handled preparation of our taxes and we had an accountant that handled and filed them until now. My son-in-law sat down with me and we went through the software together. I was so very impressed and grateful that he showed me how to use the software. Next year should be easier!
I had lots of problems with the Schedule E portion of the software. II had multiple rentals and i kept getting routed to the wrong one. You really someone (a user) to go through that section and figure out what the problems are.
Cons: Hard to prepare
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
