Verified Purchase:Yes
I have used H%R Block software for the past 10 years to do my taxes. I find the questions asked makes it easy to follow and complete my return. The final review is helpful finding missing info and gives me confidence that my return is accurate. The e-filing process is great. This year I got my refund within 5 days of efiling this year.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents
I would recommend this to a friend!

I purchased your product and it worked as expected. When I was filing my federal return your software gave me the choice of receiving my refund by direct deposit or by check. I chose to receive a check. But the IRS sent me a letter ( CP53E ) telling me that I can't get a check but I have to get direct deposit. I followed instructions and went online to irs.gov But it didn't like my cell phone & it kept locking me out. It look 3 days till I was able to complete the process. I keep getting emails telling that they have not got info to validate it yet. it's been 3 week and i am still waiting. You should have known this and not given me the choice. That would have saved a lot of grief.

Rough edges never get fixed, it seems

Began using to escape the Intuit's overblown upselling. I like that HRB does limit this, a bit, though bolding your preferred sale seems predatory.
EXTREMELY disappointed I cannot continue using HRB on my Windows7 PC - a pain to borrow my son's gamer, and likely a deal breaker for me in future.
Oddly confusing wording on some screens, with shallow backup info - sloppy editing - get some focus groups on it.
State I use remains pretty poorly handled for us non-residents who will allocate partially.
Review doesn't handle warnings well, jumping back and forth to detail forms is cumbersome, and following the logic is hard with some results.
WHY/HOW would I get some credit for business owners if I'm not owning a business?? Could NOT track that down, so submitted it. :/
Faster, easier than a live tax service, and certainly less expensive; but I wonder if the ditching of Windows7 operability and the continuing sloppiness and poor back-info will have me trying the IRS's toy first next year.

Pros: Easy to prepare
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Calculation of estimated taxes for next year is very complicated. I'm an investor .... I have no idea what the markets will do. Yet I need to guess at the future and pay cash out of my holdings or I will get slapped with a penalty. Just does not seem right.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Fast
Cons: Doesn't maximize refund
