Customer Reviews for H&R Block - Tax Software Deluxe 2026 Download - Windows, Mac OS

The federal went smooth so I could e-file it. The state was a lot more complicated telling me I had errors to fix but wouldn't let me fix them. I have used H&R Block software for many years and this is the worst experience I have had so far.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good program messed up by requiring PDF program
on March 6, 2026

from Los Angeles
I would give a 5 but the last step to save file as PDF requiring me to install a PDF program that I don't want and don't need made me mad. I will reconsider using your product again next year after 4 years of use.
Pros: Easy to prepare
I would recommend this to a friend!

The Colorado State software has an error and the chat person could not help and wouldn’t escalate the issue to a person that I could explain the calculation issue with. That person just closed the chat. I’ll not purchase H&RBlock software in the future after having been a customer for about 10 years
Pros: Easy to prepare
Cons: Hard to import documents
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

For the first time in many (8+) years, H& R Block has failed me!
I followed instructions as per usual, did accuracy reviews and submitted my returns. Twice now my federal return has been rejected despite trying to follow the very insufficient and poorly crafted instructions in the energy credit section. I’m miffed!

Software works well, very clear and easy; have 2 complaints. First, please put an operation to enable larger print size, type is TOO small. Second, in audit check, it takes you to a form but cannot obtain an explanation of problem. I have been using this software for numerous years.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents
Cons: Time consuming
I would recommend this to a friend!

Miscalculates home mortgage interest deduction: CA
on March 6, 2026
Posted by: Linda in CA
from Los Angeles, CA
I have used this product for years and have been audited several times due to mistakes in the program regarding the home mortgage interest deduction. H&R Block does provide support for audits and will pay for the interest on late payments due to their mistakes, but only within 3 years, and not all of my audits have been inside of this time period. The home mortgage interest deduction is finally fixed on the federal form as of 2024, but is still not correct on my state form for CA. If you are claiming a home mortgage deduction, make sure you are extremely sure of what to do! This program does not automatically give you give the home mortgage interest deduction for CA, and if you manage to find the tiny little box that says "I paid home mortgage interest" buried in the long list of unlikely deductions, it will prompt you with the wrong deduction information.
If you have used the product for many years and know how to override the mistakes, it will save a lot of time over collecting all the correct forms yourself and filling them out by hand. Otherwise, be careful.
