Comprehensive application that enables filing
on April 12, 2026

Very thorough application for my MacBook Pro.
H&R Block provides the download updater that was needed to update the application as the update software process failed.
This has happened for this tax year and for the previous year as well.
The interview process is clear.
The implementation of tax law regarding royalty from eBook publication was byzantine, but I blame IRS for that.
The app assumes royalty for rentals for some reason.
Miscellaneous income worked.

This program does not dig down to ensure all options are explored. I did a state and it missed a huge write off and now I have to refile and pay to refile and I'm not getting any assistance from this company.
Cons: Doesn't maximize refund, Hard to prepare
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I was very disappointed that I was not able to import data from my Merrill Lynch account. In previous years this was easily done; but, this year ML was dropped as an import choice. I may switch to TurboTax.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund
Cons: Hard to import documents
