I will not go back to TurboTax!

I'm not sure why I ever switched from H&R Block. It works and it's half the price. It is much less stressful than TurboTax because they don't overwhelm you with questions that don't apply. Also, I like that there is an option for amendments and a free audit assistance. Took me about 3-4 hours only because I have my own business. Refund was much larger than Turbo Tax last year. I wonder if the law change had anything to do with that??
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
Makes it easy. As long as you gather your records that you keep all year, just input the data and answer the questions. The rest is pretty automatic, particularly if you use Block annually for your taxes. Rental properties are a breeze, as are investments. When you have an occasional question, the help files are pretty clear. Have learned to look at the actual files where there are listings to remove artifacts from previous years that may not be appropriate or necessary for the current tax year. Planning to stick with them going forward.

This program provides a start to assist someone to gather the necessary paperwork to do taxes. It is easy to move through the basic sections, but in the areas where the tax law is either changing or very complicated, this program does not adequately break things down. The section on HSA's was lacking.
