FUSTRATING... Could not open last years tax return to start new return for many weeks. I would receive error message about bad file. I tried option of opening prior years PDF and software did not convert basic information. Software was finally able to open last years file after first software update in January. I still cannot finalize the planning section with message... "Completed Planning Topics This interview isn't final. Visit the Update Center for release dates." Otherwise software is only average. Ohhh... Try selecting a nickname for review complete
Cons: Hard to import documents
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have been using H&R Block tax software for many years, going back to the days of Kiplinger Tax Cut. No issues with this software. Trusted name. Ease of use. Confidence in accuracy. Recommend.
Pros: Easy to prepare

Really like 2024 so tried 2025. I will say I manually inputted W-2 and 1099 in 2024. What a pain but that was in 2024 it exported them for 2025 SWEET! Note we sent off on 3 February our refund was in the account on the 19th. Recommend Highly recommended Will be getting 2026 when available next year!!

The program has a flaw when calculating EIC for single person. Rejects filing saying not live in USA at least 6 months but there is no place to enter that you did live in USA. Had to go into form to find where to enter
Cons: Doesn't maximize refund, Hard to prepare
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I've used H & R Block software since 2010 or earlier. It has always been easy to use and given me a maximum refund or minimum amount due, depending on the year and my income.
