This is my 12th year using this same software and it is simple to use and very accurate. It walks you through every possible tax issue you may have to handle, simply and easily.
Everything was going well until I got to the end and had some verification errors.There was no code for box 14 that matched my W2 for NY PFL so I selected OTHER but at the filing section I was forced to select something else. Apparently OTHER is not accepted (could have been from the State) so I had to choose from the codes listed on the screen. I'm sure this small omission caused me an hour of grief and I do not know if the one I finally picked will cause a problem. The recommendation to contact my employer does me no good on a Sunday afternoon.
This product got me the lowest tax owed. The input portion is easier to use than Turbo Tax, because there are fewer screens, but Turbo Tax is better at explaining why (for instance) I wasn't allowed to contribute to my ROTH IRA...H&R just said I couldn't, and the program wanted to add penalties for it instead of telling me why and how to undo the problem.
walked me through my return step-by-step made it obvious where to get entry data from, and where to record it ask me questions to ensure nothing was forgotten
I have used HRB tax software for several years and find it 95% fits my needs. Only problem with it is that I have distributions from a gas and oil trust stock and the instructions for handling this situation is vague.
It is very easy and simple to use this software. Great features. Easy to download and use the data from my investment accounts. I love this and I have been using H&R tax software for the past 3 years without any issues. Great one.
