Not suited for visually impaired no way to adjust

H R Block's software issues:
Print on the screen is incredibly small and is difficult to read if you are visually impaired.
Tried to enlarge the viewing area and part of the form and question panels become
move.
If the print size for the software was adjustable and would look similar to the type in this space, that would be an improvement.
I think you should also consider changing the background to a softer off white or a soft yellow so the print would stand out.
I have suggested this each year and I see no improvement.
I am considering writing to Turbo Tax to see if they accommodate visually impaired individuals.

very good product but no reason for the price to remain so high for a simple 1040. NO reason. Most of us are brand loyal and do not want to do a learning curve to another type of program but will next yr if the price does not come down.
Cons: Time consuming
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Pros: Easy to prepare

As usual, H&R Block software stepped me thru the logical process and helped me complete my return quickly and easily, as it has for the past 7 years. However, somehow the software "reasoned" that I wanted to file an extension, when I answered no such question. I was finally able to remove the request for an extension, but I'm not even sure how. It all occurred in the section relating to excess investment contributions. This was a possible bug in the software. Also, I suffered a capital gains loss several years ago and have been given a $3,000 loss benefit for the past several years. I still had about $7K remaining of that capital loss. However, this year the software permitted me to adjust only $1,028 vice the normal $3K. I checked the form itself, but could not comprehend the potential discrepancy. Nor did the software provide an explanation. I chalked it up to probable tax law changes. Since I received a sizable refund, I wasn't overly concerned.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Fast

Every year I rely on the Block software to do my tax returns, and it has never disappointed me. It's fast and easy, and tells me when I need to make a decision about how to file or supply more info. My record-keeping system is nothing special. During the year I toss income and expense documents into separate file folders, adding end-of-year forms as they come in. On the day I do my taxes, it takes longer to organize the paper into categories than it does to do the return on Block! Once everything is sorted, I fire up the program, enter the data, and e-file the returns. I can even download the data directly from some financial institutions into my return, which saves time and frustration.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents, Fast
I would recommend this to a friend!
