The state software is incomplete. After going through entering all my data about my state tax return and getting ready to mail my state tax return. The final checklist list tells me to include the following forms if necessary, Hawaii State Tax form N158, Federal Tax form 8283, Hawaii State Tax form CR, Hawaii State Tax form 342. Isn't that what the tax software is supposed to do.
The H&RBlock software is easy to use and follow. The instructions are clear, the prompts are easy to understand. I also used the chat capability which was answered within 2 minutes. That resource person was easy to work with and helped me understand and solve my dilemma. I'm glad that I bought and used this software package.

There is a bug at the end, after finishing Federal and OH State returns, when trying to print the returns on paper or to a PDF. The federal return prints, but the State disappears. Since I did a File/Save before printing, I closed H&R Block Deluxe and reopened it to print the State return (after printing State return disappeared again. I had to restart again to be able to e-file Federal and State.
I've used the H&R Block version for many years - going back 20+ years I think, when it was first a Kiplinger's product< not sure. It is incredibly important to me that H&R Block continue to provide this PC software package year after year. The ability to directly download all data from the previous year's files is of great value to me. My only complaint is that all forms are not ready by mid February. One form I need is apparently not going to be ready until March 5 (the Vermont 'Kiddy tax" form).
I’ve used the H&R Block software for 4 years now and have been totally satisfied. Extremely easy to use and accurate. I often can finish my taxes in an hour or two.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
