Breeze to use
on March 10, 2018
Posted by: Charlie 2
I have been using H&R Block tax software for year and year and it does not disappoint me. Easy to use. Lots of help and explanations. I would like to see a place where I can report litle "bugs" without having to go through support.
Pros: Easy to install, Easy to prepare, Easy to import
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great features, user friendly, very convenient

I've been using Block tax software for many years, started back when it was called Taxcut. Tried the other big brand once and sent it back and used Block again that year. Block has more state programs than the other, is easier to use, and the included support from a company that has been in the tax preparation and assistance business since before my dad owned his own business almost 50 years ago is a great comfort. The one thing that I think would be an awesome improvement to an already great product would be the ability to use the software through out the year as estimated taxes come due. As a small business owner, my income cannot be accurately estimated at the beginning of the year. Therefore being able to enter actual income figures each quarter to determine what to pay as estimated tax at that time would be an awesome feature. I'd love to hear from a representative about this suggestion. thanks
Pros: Easy to install, Easy to prepare, Easy to import, Fast
Cons: Hard to fix issues
I would recommend this to a friend!

This program makes filing taxes so much easier then doing it by hand. I've been using this program for almost twenty years and wouldn't think of using any other tax software. I never hesitate to recommend it to family and friends.
Pros: Easy to install, Easy to fix issues, Easy to prepare, Easy to import, Fast

Easy process
on March 9, 2018
Posted by: Charliebrown62
Every year I get this in the mail and get the same discount I would find at the store. So why shop? The process is so easy with step by step instructions and if you are not sure exactly what it is talking about, you can easily find out by a click of the mouse. The downloading of prior year tax information saves so much time and each year tells you what is new for the year you are filing in. Come on, cant get any easier than that. Love it. I even brought my son and his girlfriend in from the "other guys" this year. It will be easy to do theirs next year now.
Pros: Easy to install, Easy to fix issues, Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import, Fast
I would recommend this to a friend!

Just OK
on March 9, 2018
Posted by: Laskin
Past versions were better, this time the program did not take me through a question session. I had to hunt and peck around to get to the right section. Especially perturbed about not asking whether to use a "State Sales Tax" deduction or a standard State Tax Deduction.
Cons: Time consuming, Doesn't maximize refund, Hard to fix issues, Hard to prepare
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Best Tax Software for the Money
on March 9, 2018
Posted by: SouthBaySoCal
As good or better than any of the tax software for sale. Rated as one or the top tax software programs as long as I can remember. I have tried the other major brands but always come back to H&R Block/Tax Cut.
I have been using Deluxe with State H&R Block/Tax Cut for over ten years. No problems. Software walks you through each step. Once you finish the federal return, the state return process takes the federal data and overlays onto the state when possible then walks you through the rest.
It is up to you to have the W-2s, mortgage interest, interest income, dividends payed and other documents handy when you use the software. Expect to spend several hours if you have a complex 1040 return with itemized deductions. I usually space it out over several days with 1-2 hours at a time. Remember to save after a major step and when you leave the program. Easy to go back and correct an entry if you want to update something.
When done, best to take a break before filing. You have the option of electronic or paper filing. Software will alert you when you electronically filed/accepted and if there is a problem with the filing within 24 hours. You can back-up the file and returns and save as pdf files.
There are a couple of minor quirks but nothing serious and I find easy to work with. i always get a refund better than I expected!
