My fourth year with HR Block and am glad to receive each year's software in the mail. My taxes are moderately complicated for a single filer, but I get through easily thanks to the HR Block program: Clear questions, helpful side panels and ways to skip over what I don't need. It's the only software I need.
Pros: Easy to install, Easy to fix issues, Easy to prepare, Easy to import, Fast
I bought the Premium over the Deluxe because I was led to believe it had much greater help with residential rental property. With rules like 2% of Book Value as a restriction on expenses, the software should catch that. (It is certainly an algorithm.) Also, it could use more guidance on what to capitalize and how to capitalize (MACRS, SL, life, etc.). Minimal guidance in these areas.
Pros: Easy to install, Easy to prepare, Easy to import
Transfers information from previous years. No greedy up charge for sch c filers as turbo tax tried to do many years ago. Instantly switched to H&R Block and never looked back.
