I’ve been using the HRBlock product for many years. It has always been easy to use and eases the burden of filing taxes. It’s great that it saves information year to year....a big time saver!
I have been using this product and its previous version Kiplinger's Tax Cut for over 20 years and it has worked perfectly every year. No plans to change. I like the way that it imports my personal data from the previous year when I start a new tax year.

I had several problems with this year's edition, self employment material was dropped after I finished it. There was a "0" income reported in the dividend sheet for 2 funds that gave me capital gains, causing some needless worries. I had to file very late due to some serious surgery and the aggravation added by these occurrences was unwelcome
Pros: Easy to install, Maximizes refund, Easy to import
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to fix issues, Hard to prepare
I loved a new feature that I finally tried this year of downloading my 1099's from my stock brokers . Really slick and not that hard to learn and do . One problem I had that I do not ever remember having before was in entering a 1099 misc from my former employer that I retire from for imputed income on a benefit of legal service .I had a heck of a time finding the right boxes to select so the program would do the right thing .I kept running into a problem where the program wanted to treat it as business income and make me file Sch C . WRONG !!!!!!
Pros: Easy to install, Easy to prepare, Easy to import
