H&R Block has done an outstanding job of coding some very powerful software. The software is very intuitive you just need to collect all your information and have it ready as you walk through the program. Each entry screen will ask for your information like W-2s 1099s excetera. I really like the feature that H&R Block checks all my work to make sure it's accurate and will stand with me if it comes to an audit. Save yourself the hours of countless tax forms and broken pencils. I no longer dread tax time
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents, Fast
About five years ago we used your competitors software to do our taxes. We only used them once because they raised their prices the following year (a ridiculous amount, I must say). We then started using HR software and found it to be much easier to use and felt more confident with the final results. We’ve been using it every year since. Two thumbs up.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents, Fast
Easy to use. Still being charged to transmit state returns. After 4 years financial information still not in H&R for data import, have to imput the 1099’s manually.
I have IRAs, investment accounts, interest income, W2s. Makes it easy to account tor all these.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Fast
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good Program For Most Tax Situations

I've used H&R Block's software for many years. They are thorough and the interfaces are easy to navigate. However, this year was unique for my family and I had a couple of questions for which I never could find good answers. First, we paid off our home in 2019. I had a 1098 showing our mortgage interest. I was hoping to determine if I could claim anything for making the rather large payoff. Never found an answer to that. Second, I lucked up and actually won some money at a casino. I had a W2-G, but beyond block 1 nothing matched on the W-2 form. It would be helpful to be informed that anything except a standard W-2 would be addressed later (I did delete what I started and was able to enter the W2-G data later). It was the fact that I'd never had anything other than a standard W2 until this year. Some upfront info on this would be helpful. Other than those two hiccups, this is a great platform for doing a very complex and highly detailed exercise every year.
I’ve used this tax software for many years and have always found it to be easy to use, accurate and consistently lower priced than its main competitor.
