Miserable experience.

It was a total mess. Rejected my return because of H&R Block software error, then the instructions for downloading the fix did not work. Apparently the fix was downloaded without telling the victims. Rotten service!
Cons: Time consuming
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Basic software contained all IRS forms needed and software directed me through entering income and deduction figures that end up on the forms. Software allowed for partial charitable distributions from IRA and adjusting the cost basis for a stock sell. Was able to view the resulting entries on the IRS forms. Of course, there were review and accuracy checks.
The only variation from manually completing a paper return was software directed me to use O (other) for one explanation where paper instructions had additional specific codes. No problem, the result was the same.

Printing weirdness

All worked OK until I went to print the forms. The bottoms of the forms were off the paper, and no fiddling with scaling and paper size would make the whole form visible. Online help instructed a restart after removing the printer from the printer queue, and that worked. But as soon as the printer was reattached, the problem reappeared.

H&R Block software is a very organized way to do your taxes. It is great that the basic client data gets saved from year to year so you can get right into entering your tax data.
Pros: Easy to prepare

Beats the hell out of trying to do it yourself or paying a CPA to do it! I also like the way with little fanfare it calls attention to dumb entries you make, and remembers all the carry-over stuff from previous years that are needed for the current year.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
I would recommend this to a friend!
