State Tax Rejection
on April 15, 2019
Posted by: MrChappell3
from Richmond, CA
My state tax was rejected because the AGI did not match. Note I used your software last year and the AGI self-populated for the current tax year and I verifed the AGI. Lastly, I field MFJ so why is the rejection stating my spouses AGI is incorrect? No where while I was preparing the state did it ask for my spouses AGI so how can it be rejected on that basis?
Cons: Time consuming
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Another year of Windows 10 issues with updates
on April 15, 2019
Posted by: Disappointed and some
from Little Rock
First, this is the 2nd year I have had major problems with federal and state updates not installing and throwing error messages in Windows 10; I have been using the software for 15 years (2003). It was also difficult to track down a phone number on the website to obtain actual tech support. The data imported by the PDF import function required a manual clean up of data boxes in various forms. The planning section for estimating next year's tax liability and creating an updated W-4 is lacking in detail or definitions of the some of the asked-for data in the user interface. For example, what exactly is included in "other payroll deductions"? Opening the withholding worksheet and examining line 57 gave a better idea, but even that is was somewhat vague. Also, the HR Block withholding worksheet does not take into account elective deferrals or employer sponsored health coverage which can radically change the taxable amount and result in someone having way too much withholding.
Cons: Time consuming, Doesn't maximize refund, Hard to import documents
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Good, but needs tweaking

Still lots of geek-speak here. Instead of assuming that i understand what a technical term means, you should inject two or three questions to break it down into a more understandable way. insteadof "check your form for further instructions on how to enter this", you should have (for example)
1) did you have ......?
2) was that .....?, but don’t include ___.
3) on line 7, you entered___, this contradicts what you entered on an earlier form. Answer these few questions so we know how to properly fill out the form. Maybe they should make a "Tax Prep for Dummies" lol.

Not for Individuals living on Social Security
on April 15, 2019
Posted by: Mad Senior
from USA
This software I paid for months ago was fine at first. I waited till updates were all in . before finalizing. The only income I have is SSA1099. Paid in no tax and according to calculations I do not owe ANY taxes. Software will not let me e-file now at the eleventh hour. This is truly sad. Will explain to IRS tomorrow. Thanks H&R Block
Cons: Time consuming
