I find the HRB Deluxe version very easy to use. I have been preparing my taxes myself for at least 45 years. I have used Block for the last 6 years. I had used TurboTax previously and see no reason to return to it.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
Very simple to use. Only a couple of questions are show at a time, so you don’t feel overwhelmed. I loved that all of W2 information was automatically imported into the software by using the code provided on the W2. My husband’s employer, however, did not provide a code on his W2. This is my 9th year using this tax software. I had to purchase this for my tax class in college back in 2011. It was the recommended software back then by my professor.
