Every year this Software loses it's mind over the state return. The FIRST time it happened I had to call support and they told me what to do. AL does NOT tax retirement incomes and the FEDERAL government does not provide the expected results .... EXPECTED for taxes to be taxed by AL in boxes on the form 1099-R. On the AL state software side it says the number cannot be ZERO. Yes you can file electronicaly your Fed but AL state will bonk. Then if you go to the forms and correct the "error" by making it 1 or 2 and not zero it still flags it as an error. So you will have to file AL as paper, which is fine if it's not 10'oclock on 4/15 and your printer has paper and you do not owe the state. How H&R cannot get AL process correct is irritating, I suspect this is true for any other state that does not tax retirement income explicitly at the source.

Imports from my financial institution were not supported this year after over ten years of being supported, and the TXF import file format does not support the ‘wash sale disallowed loss’ and ‘accrued market discount’ fields for stock sales. My 3 hour tax prep turned into 12 hours.
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to import documents
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Can do foreign and business. I don't think I could do either manually. I did the UK for one of my kids and business for my wife's business. The only issue I have is with Massachusetts business taxes did not allow me to add a page for the ZZ*.

Business section of software doesn’t work properly
on April 18, 2026
Posted by: FlatTaxTime
from OKC, OK
Verified Purchase:Yes
The business (state) portion of this program froze and did not work. I had to complete the state forms by hand. Although the federal business section did work, it does not provide much help in filling out any necessary forms. On a positive note, the individual tax section of this software works fine.
Pros: Maximizes refund
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to prepare
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I’m dealing with an issue related to vehicle depreciation. In the first year, I used the standard mileage method, and in the second year I switched to the actual expense method. However, the depreciation calculation does not appear to properly account for the first year.
Additionally, as a large company, I would expect the amendment process to be much more streamlined and handled electronically. I was surprised to learn that I still have to file an amended return by paper—this feels outdated and not a very professional experience.
Cons: Time consuming
I would recommend this to a friend!
