The program did my federal just fine but it was missing some state updates and I had to use my state’s website to file state. Not sure how to avoid this in the future. I ran the updates and it said it was good but when I entered the same numbers on the state free file I got a bigger refund due to some other state specific credits.
Pros: Easy to prepare
Cons: Doesn't maximize refund

The program works well the first time through but then it’s quite a challenge to go back to find and correct errors

The Federal step by step guide is great, but the State guide is not so good. To many general questions with very little clear descriptions
Pros: Easy to prepare

Generally happy but two problems. (1) Re estimated taxes paid, the program includes taxes paid in 2026 for 2025 but the audit says you cannot include taxes paid in 2026. (2) The program does not provide for entering bank details for refunds. It seems the only way to do this is by overriding the entries on the form. This seems very perverse.

Accurate, easy to use, clear instructions. Start to finish it took me less than two hours to complete, print and e-file my return. Perfect for retirees like me with three pensions, Social Security and an MRD from an IRA.
Pros: Fast

I have used the H&R Block tax program for quite a few years. I appreciate the free e-filing of the federal taxes; however, for the price of the program, I feel that e-filing of the state taxes should be free as well.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents
