Creates Duplicate 8949 forms for Digital Assets
on April 18, 2026

Verified Purchase:Yes
I've been using H&R software for several years and like the product. My only complaint is when you report Cryptocurrency sales in the *Investment" section of the return. When entering the topic there are TWO boxes that can be checked for Crypto transactions. One box is already checked and cannot be unchecked and the other states it is for transactions reported on a 1099-DA, which applied to my situation. This is confusing and conflicting. If you try to uncheck the checked box, you get a msg that any duplicate data entered will be automatically removed. WRONG! I ended up with duplicate digital asset forms 8949, which made my taxes incorrect. Of course this passes the final error check with no errors. I filed my taxes and then printed the forms. Upon reviewing the documents, I realized there were duplicate 8949 forms. I had to file an Amended return to pay extra taxes. This section needs to be better worded and the error check should check for duplicate 8949 forms.
Pros: Easy to prepare
Cons: Time consuming
I would recommend this to a friend!

Been using this for over 20 years. Works well but the recent price increases make me question if its a good value. I have a simple tax return and only use 1 electron file. You gave me a discount this year because of an issue you had in the prior year. That discount doubled the price. Some discount. I plan to investigate other options due to the price. I may you use again or not depending on what I find.

I have used H&R Block for over 20 years. I am 81 ears old and appreciate the ease of inputing the information but not the TERRIBLE way you have to record the Oil and Mineral rights. It is VERY confusing. You have to do two different things and it's difficult to remember exactly how to do it each year. If you put it in the wrong place it comes up twice and then you have to redo it, etc., etc., etc. There has to be an easier way.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents
I would recommend this to a friend!

The software is easy to use, however, it is missing form 7203. Even worse, on my Schedule F, every year I have to select the proper depreciation schedule for all of my capital equipment because it does not import this information from the prior year's return. HR Block makes it extremely difficult to provide feedback for software improvements. I hope someone reads this review and resolves these issues!
Pros: Easy to prepare
I would recommend this to a friend!
