The software entered a large part of my RMD in the wrong line, so It looks like I didn't withdraw enough. Now the IRS tells me I need to submit a written and mailed 1040X to correct the clerical error. I did everything correctly and still the data was entered in the wrong place. PS: there is no way to do the 1040X in the program because the form does not have a way to do that except for Part III explanation. And also the program will not allow me to amend the State IT201X because it is locked to the erroneous !040SR and 1040X.
I am a loyal customer for H & R tax software for the past 15 years. The interviews are easy to answer, and the ability for my state taxes to be filed using the same purchase is very convenient. I have used the assistance feature once to ask a question, and I received a fast and accurate answer.
I always go with H&R Block with all my tax needs year in and year out. I love the fact they are old school and send me a CD to install. I love hard copies of my installation media. Giving you 5 keys to E-File makes doing taxes for my family a breeze. The design is simple yet fluid and hyperlinks help if you are unsure with anything. They always have routine updates to ensure you have an up to date product.
Beware, double check if it imports figures from last year it got mine wrong, luckily I caught it and fixed the errors. This is the second year using it but thinking I might be going back to my old software and just pay the higher price.
