The section dealing with retirement distributions was unclear as my military retirement does not have a minimum. I felt anxious ignoring the questions and clicking on NEXT without feedback that I was doing the correct action.
I have been using H&R block software for many years. It has assisted me through the working years and now into the retirement years. It has guided me through many new situations and I am always confident with the results
I have been using H&R TAXCUT software for over 30 years and have never had an issue. It is very simple to use , just answer the questions and it works without the pressure and with great accuracy. Other tax programs have had problems and recalls but not H&R Block. Try it you will like it.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents, Fast
H&R Block Deluxe does a very good job of walking you through entering personal information, the numbers from W2s, 1099DIVs, etc., performing the calculations, and helping make many decisions. However, it is not a tax advisor that’ll explain for example, if “certain intangible assets” are pertinent to your situation. Nor will this program - or a human tax professional - compensate for haphazard record keeping on your part. Have reasonable expectations and assume you may need to read a few IRS publications if you have IRAs, teens earning income, kids in college, have investments outside of an IRA, or have just retired. I’ve used this program for years and been generally satisfied. The IRS has never come a knocking. To a degree I credit H&R Block Deluxe for that piece of mind.
