The software works well for mundane returns, but too often it asks for information that is contained in previous year's returns. On several occasions, the program discovered issues when I was about to submit my return, NOT when I did the normal checks and reviews. I have used this program for many years, and I almost always hear from both the IRS and my state that I have made mistakes. This did not happen when I did my taxes "by hand". There are just too many issues with the program for me to consider it to be top notch. In the past, I used the common competitor, and generally it was superior in these aspects. I will, sadly, probably return to the competition.
Pros: Easy to import documents
Cons: Time consuming, Doesn't maximize refund
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I was glad this still works on Windows 10. While it was somewhat easy to use, some of the navigations and checks are not very explanatory. The review was difficult when it generated errors that cannot be fixed because they reported problems that did not exist.

The best and easiest o use. Been using it for decades. Sometime, I tried other software to double check, and I always find HR the best.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast

I would normally give 5 stars. This year, after I imported my 1099-B from Schwab, it displayed 2 transactions as having a capital gains loss, but not in the short term gain/loss list where they would normally go. One of these was not obviously a wash sale given the acquisition and disposal dates not being close together, so I tried to move it into the short term gain/loss list. This caused the error check to fail, and confused my tax advisor -- I ultimately moved it back (not claiming the loss). The downloaded/human readable 1099-B PDF showed these to be disallowed losses, declared as wash sales. I would have much preferred to have had these two items to have been clearly marked as disallowed without a loss because of being marked as wash sales, instead of appearing as valid losses that could be seemingly claimed.
