This year the H&R Block software is unusually buggy. It randomly changes fields that have been input for no apparent reason - both the names of accounts and the amounts were randomly changed. I had to go through my return several times to fix these problems. I've been using H&R Block for many years now and this is the first year it has done this.
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to import documents
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I have been using it for 4 consecutive years, obviously it is excellent product. However ,I wish it could make it simpler to report backdoor roth conversion, which I did every year.

If you don't have a question, it is great. Fill in the blocks and it does a good job. But if you need help, forget it. My federal return went fine but when I got to the state, I had an error. The instructions said to enter a number (it told me the amount) on form CSA-1099R Block 16 before I could e-file the return. A couple of problems. OPM sent me the CSA-1099R so I shouldn't be able to change it and there is no block 16 on that form (It is kind of like having them say to add information to your W-2). I tried for 10 days to fix the problem. I have started over several times and went back and checked everything more times. So today I decided it was time for help. First, I got a BOT that didn't understand the question. So, after some time, it sent me to a real person. That person asked if I had deleted the return and started over and then logged off. She did come back and apologized.
Pros: Easy to prepare
Cons: Hard to import documents
