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

I generally like the program. One area is confusing. I am a 1099 contracted private practitioner. I continually get tripped up as to whether I am "self-employed" or not and sometimes mistakenly list that job/self-employment twice. Another area that needs enhancing. I forgot to put my estimated state income taxes in my state return because my state did not send me a K-something form. Please ask if I made estimated state taxes even if I did not get a form. And lastly, there could be more help with the process of filing an amended return, both federal and state.
Pros: Easy to prepare
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have spent 3 hours on the phone with the help desk and they still have not solved my problem. All I am trying to do is to import 1099 documents from a financial institution, a very basic capability. I tried on a Windows machine and Mac and they both fail.
Cons: Hard to import documents
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

2026 tax software improvements
on April 3, 2026
Posted by: FedAndStateUser

I like the software, but there are several areas which could use improvement.
1. This form. You cannot scroll in the review box.
2. The font is very small and dim. You might be able to make 1 page bigger, but then is goes back to small.
3. It is very hard to find state (MN) form. When you clock on State, the only option is to start the state over and you lose your previous work
4. It would be really nice to ba able to “gray out” a section that I have gone through. When I restart the program, it is as though you have not done anything. I have to search for where I left off.
5. Would appreciate it if there was a generic search function. The AI assistant isn’t very useful.

I wish you would place a priority on front end establishment of senior/fully retired status. Every year I am challenged by the fact that I have to cycle through entering 1099 ONLY income. It is confusing and annoying. Also, the many, many types of passive income that are not needed on my return, but that I must nonetheless, cycle through. Are all those negative responses really necessary for a return as simple as mine? It makes me wonder whether I have other options.
Pros: Maximizes refund
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to prepare

I have used H&R Block app for many years to file my IRS and State taxes. For some unknown reason I had questions this time as some subjects weren’t as clear as they have been in the past. Eventually, all were made clear.

The process of bring the last years data into the current year does have some failures. Sometimes, when going back to check data entries just completed, the software shows the old data with red exclamations instead of the recently input new data.
The software also gives different "help" suggestions for any K-1 data when queried. Other small irritations tell me that the "parsing" of newly sub-routines has not been vigorously completed. A few other irritations may cause me to change next year.
