Good software, does what I expected it to do.

This is good software that does what I expected it to do. Note that there are things that could be improved. For instance:
The software checks to see if we made at least the required minimum distribution (RMD)from an IRA. But it requires me to figure out what the required minimum distribution is! It does tell me what IRS document has the instructions for figuring this out. So I could figure it out (and I did). But the software could ask for the information needed to determine the RMD and tell me what the RMD is.
Note that the process of determining the RMD is not easy. If the H&R Block software could calculate the RMD, this would be a valuable feature in the product.

I would recommend this to a friend!

Very User Friendly

I have used Turbo Tax for years. The cost continued to increase and I think it could be confusing. I decided to give H&R Block a try, especially when I found out their software would import my previous year's tax information from Turbo Tax. I found it to be more user friendly and more straightforward than Turbo Tax.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Fast
I would recommend this to a friend!

Works Very Well

I have used H&R tax programs for many years. I would hate to do my taxes the old fashion way. Instead of paying someone the big bucks. One has to supply the needed numbers to that person. Why not just enter those numbers, in this program and save a lot of money.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast

Always a problem
on April 10, 2019
Posted by: Harpersferry
This year it says my form cannot be processes because of the "Other" line in my W2. This is senseless and it provides no way around the error. Additionally any help is a pain. No direct way to get help....
Pros: Easy to import documents
Cons: Time consuming, Doesn't maximize refund, Hard to prepare
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Don't pay for and download the desktop version if you work for a railroad. You cannot e file with more than 4 box 14 entries.
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to prepare, Hard to import documents

Easy and thorough!

I have been using H&R Block Deluxe Software to prepare my taxes since 2015 and each year the process seems easier and every bit as thorough than the year before. I have never had any problems with either the Federal or State returns being accepted and have never been audited, so I couldn't be happier! I highly recommend H&R Block Software to anyone who prepares their own tax returns and I will continue to use their software every year also!!
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
