Using Tax software from HR Block for last 28 years (since 1998, used to be TaxCut). First time got an issue with the key, not sure why AND that is the reason for 3 stars. Software is always easy to use and understand and that is the reason I am using for last 28 years.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
I would recommend this to a friend!

Due to the software not being able to reconcile and issue between my 2024 and 2025 tax statements the software would not allow me to send the tax information online. I had to print my tax information and mail it. No matter what I did following the reconciliation help screens the software would not reconcile. Looks like turbo tax next time.
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to prepare

I've been using this since 2009 and it gets worse each year. The interview keeps getting more and more basic. There are less guide prompts about forms or double checks for commonly missed items. There are just screens with huge checklists of random selections without any explanation, prompt, or guide as to what they are, except for a disclaimer of "uncommon" here and there, which implies the others could be common. When you ask for help it simply points to IRS documents. If I wanted to read those publications I would not use software at all. I question whether the "accuracy check" does anything other than see if checkboxes in the interview have a corresponding entry on the form. It selects random valid entries such as PFL selections and does not remember that you cleared them. It did not apply any logic to the check, for example I accidentally added a place to a withholding which made the withholding more than the income itself, I realize that is my error, but it makes no sense and that's the kind of thing I would think would be looked for. I am certain pervious versions flagged these things with "are you sure?" You now also have to complete the entire interview again if you make a change to one section of it. For example I needed to add an amount to my cash receipts on schedule C and had to go through the whole process of all income again to do that.
Cons: Hard to prepare

I find it's easier to navigate the program online. Which by doing online program I would have owed less, but it would have been a larger expense to use rather than buying the program and installing it. Should be the other way around when navigating the program.
Pros: Easy to import documents
Cons: Doesn't maximize refund

Great that it works with the older windows, only reason we made the switch from turbotax. Hard to figure out how to correct 2 errors because there is no support or explanation. Only figured out one of them by reading a lot online. Never could figure out the second issue but the tax return was accepted.
