I have used for many years, though my taxes were simple. This year I had a few odd items like an excess contribution and electric vehicle credit. Neither of those things are uncommon at all but the software made it more confusing to complete than simply filling out the actual IRS forms. Poor poor job with even the smallest curveball. Heck, there are even several references to taxes being due on April 15 instead of July 15. Where were your updates, H&R?
Easy to use, but not reliable. Did my taxes and saved the file. Then on July 15th, I expected to open the file, e-file and pay my taxes. Nope. The file wouldn't open. Something about a header block. So, I got to go through the entire process again, start to finish.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents, Fast
I’ve used the software for over ten years and have been happy with it. Unfortunately, the last two years that I attempted to file an extension, the actual return was transmitted, which required an amended return. Still don’t know what went wrong. I’ll try the other software next year.
Everything I needed was provided in an easy to follow method. Follow up guidance to fix a problem was smooth and accurate. I’d recommend H&R Block tax software to everyone.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
I've used the H&R Block software now for about 8 years. I love that it imports items from the previous year to help save time. That also helps remind of what I entered last year so I don't forget. I continue to use it because it works!
