I purchase this product so to have nice clean legible IRS Documents. I just wish there was a way to open previous editions/prior years documents with having to buy a new program in order to get the new registration codes. Such as purchasing a new computer and transferring the data files then the programs will no longer work because who knows where the original program registration codes are, especially if downloaded program from internet.
Pros: Easy to prepare
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have been using the H&R Block Deluxe + State Software since 2010. There is no better software in my opinion. It is easy, dependable, and understandable. I have confidence in this software when I begin my annual tax "assignment"!
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast

The 2025 version of the Colorado State program changed with respect to how it handled the Military Exclusion portion of income. That change created confusion and to get answers I called the help line several times. I did not get a clear answer. H&R elevated my concern. I never heard back from them. I finally figured it out after several hours of research, and I was able to confirm my result with Colorado DoR. H&R could have done a better job of dealing with this issue.
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to prepare
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I like the software except for a feature that I would like added. For more than the past 5 years I have been taking the standard deduction for both the federal and Wisconsin returns. There should be an option where I don't have to go through all the itemized deductions if I know I'm going to take the standard deduction. This would make filing my returns simpler and much faster.
Pros: Maximizes refund, Fast
Cons: Time consuming

I bought the Mac version online, but when I tried to download and install the upgdate, it appeared to just go into a loop and I couldn't tell if the update was successful. I had trouble installing the VA state module too. I called the helpdesk and they were able to send me links to the federal and state that worked. After that everything went very smoothly. I had a similar problem last year with the state module; otherwise this would be 5 stars.

The Deluxe package helped me prepare and submit my taxes. I moved to a MAC from a Windows PC and the transition was relatively easy. I appreciated this. I found navigating your product more difficult this year and some of the searches I tried didn't return the results I was looking for. A new issue since I began using H&R Block tax software several years ago. Appreciate the ability to download my data from financial institutions. Saves time. In a couple of cases the dollar fields didn't seem to get "right justified" during download which caused problems with the "test checks" your product offers. Annoying to have to keep reviewing before filing. I also wasn't able to get advice on withholding for next year in the "planning" section after completing my return. I found this helpful in the past, but this year there didn't seem to be any advice on what my quarterly estimated tax payments should be in 2026 to avoid a penalty. This was disappointing though it could have been "operator error" on my part. Overall, using your software helped me get the job done and I appreciate all the time and effort your team puts into the development of the product.
