Software fails to provide usable, explanations for data entry blocks Point you to IRS publications and failed to provide any usable human. I readable explanations for many of the blocks. The only reason that I continue to use your software is that I used it before in other years and have tried the other three software’s on the market and yours is a less capable evil
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to prepare, Hard to import documents

I bought this back in December and had to wait until mid-February for H&R to finalize some parts of the software before I could file my taxes. It isn't the easiest tax software to use and seems to do things without informing me about things of interest. It seems to limit a person to two vehicles for taxes, so I had to combine the taxes on my first truck and my replacement truck. It doesn't make it very straight forward to file a RMD to charities along with a rollover to a Roth. The software interview process seems to skip some things, and a person has to go back and edit items in various categories it does poorly in.
Pros: Easy to import documents
Cons: Hard to prepare

I am very happy using H&R Blick Deluxe 2025 Software. I am on the automatic renewal program, so it is easy to have when I need it. It is easy to install and use. I trust the results I receive and appreciate the 5 free email filings.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast

We’re so happy to hear you had a good experience. We appreciate your business and thank you for the valuable feedback!
Had problems with the program and submitted an erroneous return. Tried to contact H&R Block but did not receive a response. I redid the return but it was not accepted and I am now being reviewed by the IRS. I hope I am going to be able to resolve this.
Cons: Hard to prepare

Have been using this software for about 10 years now. Imports information from previous year return. Connects to web site where our investment accounts are. Return got way to complicated to do by hand, this software makes filing return easier, and it makes no math errors.

Thank you for leaving a review, and for providing positive feedback. We're glad you had a great experience with H&R Block and hope to see you again next tax season!
Generally good but the normal updates never work and I need to download them manually. Also the state software never installs correctly and I need to call support and get the installer file emailed to me every year. This is on the Mac software. Fix these issues and I would rate it higher.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Fast
