This and predecessor 'Kiplinger' is the only tax software I have ever used, and had always been satisfied. 2018 software pulled in erroneous 2017 AGI as part of the validation process, which had never happened in 15+ years. IRS immediately rejected the filing and the state placed it on "Hold" pending the Federal return. AGI was corrected and Federal was accepted, but more than two days later, and the state (NC) return is still on hold...
I have been using the H&R Block Tax CD Software since 2013 & I found this year was a little more difficult to navigate. I have prepared Federal & State for myself & my daughter. This year for some reason her tax information did not save into one file where you can view both files & check on status. Each saved in a file document on their own..
The only problem I found is when you do a automatic withdraw from your bank account you can't print anything to prove at the time. But otherwise I use your software and love it.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
Overall the program was easy to use. The only thing I was very unsatisfied with is on the package it said you could file up to 5 e-file federal returns for free and one e-file for state return for free.. Wrong.. my significant other and I BOTH had to pay for our state returns, we got no free state e-file with this software.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents, Fast
I was surprised that an e file for the state return was not included as previous years. I will look at other products next year as many are offering free filing
Purchased this online for two of us to use and file separate returns. This is the 5th year we've used H&R Block software. I always research the competitors every year, but always come back to H&R Block. It consistently works, is easy to use and coaches you every step of the way. Offers many extra options as well. We'll most likely use H&R Block again next year. Highly recommended. Very stellar!
I have used H&R software for many years. However I failed to know earlier that when I had wash sells the the previous year the program failed to add these wash sells to this year's return. This year's return did tell me that I had to enter last year's wash sells myself. Recommend the program address last year's wash sells automatically.
