I couldn’t file my state return. The state software update failed with TCUpdate quit unexpectedly error. Block suggestions did not fix the problem. There was no issue in previous years.
Cons: Time consuming
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Software works very well, helps figure out all the forms, etc you might need. What the government is asking for it too excessive and should be restructured, but H & R block helps average people navigate the ocean of forms, etc.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents

I bought this because I have been using for about 10-15 years and I was mostly happy with the product. This year (2026 for 2025) however, I had to file an amended return for 2023 and 2024 and was disappointed that I could not eFile them. I was pretty disappointed because of it.

I lost confidence in the software this year because of major bugs with the 1099-B section. It repeatedly overwrote and changed entries and incorrectly calculated the capital gains. I wasted hours on this. I had to wait for two software updates for it to be fixed. I'm still nervous about the final calculations.
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to prepare
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Always purchase your program and enjoy the consistency each year. Importing last years data minimizes time spent preparing the return. Hope HRBlock will create software for Linux platforms.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Fast

First time user. Everything went well until it came time to transmit my Federal and state returns to the government. It didn't work. The error messages did not help define the problem. After three failed tries, I gave up and snail-mailed them in.
Pros: Easy to prepare

When I printed my return for my records, you xx out my bank account number (good) but left my social security number visible in numerous places. So unsafe!
Even though I filed with you last year, none of my prior year numbers were available for a year to year review. My return was prepared with you but the irs rejected it because my car dealership didnt file necessary papers. Still, the return should have been able to be returned.
Compared to Turbo tax, your explanations of instructions were very minimal and often didnt explain well
My senior return is very basic with interest, dividends, retirement income and a standard deduction. It shouldn't have been as difficult as it was to complete using your system.
Cons: Time consuming
