I've been using and paying for this product for 30 years. I like that in all that time it has remained unchanged and familiar. However, the escalating price will have me searching for alternatives such as the state/federal sites where I am eligible to file for free.

This was my 13th year for using HRBlock software, both Basic earlier and now Deluxe. As usual, loading my tax documents was straight forward and this year all needed forms were final allowing my return to be submitted three days after the IRS started accepting returns. There was a delay in getting the confirmation emails, I suspect due to the IRS and brief government shutdown, but the refund deposit quickly came in after that.

Easy to use. Ask all the right questions. The only problem I have is it gives you free e-file for Federal but charges for e-file of State. State should be free also.
Pros: Maximizes refund, Fast
Cons: Time consuming, Doesn't maximize refund, Hard to prepare, Hard to import documents
I would recommend this to a friend!

The section on 1098-T is terribly confusing. I recommend a short video on different scenarios: especially if parent claims the student.
