H&R Block tax software shines bright, once again!
on April 19, 2023
Posted by: SLDaley
from Northern California
I've used H&R Block tax prep software for a number of years with mostly excellent success. I've tried other brands before, and am familiar with income tax return preparation in general. I know how hard it is to get it right, and H&R Premium does just that!
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Fast
I would recommend this to a friend!

FLAW IN PROGRAM
on April 19, 2023
Posted by: Small Business Owners
from Oklahoma City, OK
I've used HR for decades. No real issues previously. The 2022 edition has a serious flaw. We require three schedule Cs. When we deleted one, every number in the two other Cs scrambled the numbers. 1099Ks, 1099 Misc were suddenly listed in the wrong company! Fortunately we caught it before filing. So very disappointed in the extra hours of work to put all the numbers back in the proper companies.
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to prepare
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

State return issues
on April 18, 2023
Posted by: Deb2023

I bought the software because my mom was an HR Block seasonal preparer and with Turbo Tax state return issues I thought I’d try it, same issue with your software. You claim that it comes with 1 free state efile but once you get to the end it wants credit card info and there isn’t a way to bypass it to get to a place where you can submit it without paying. On top of having to download the state software 5 times after you complete the federal otherwise it won’t download then you have to shut down several times for the state and federal to recognize each other, called customer service 5 times got disconnected and never got through to anyone
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to import documents
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Easy Navigation

I am comfortable with the software and like the prompts and question as a guide. However there needs to be better logic or coding regarding state taxes, nit all states have a tax but at end it asks for validation.

Working on Mac
on April 17, 2023
Posted by: suman78
from Roseville, CA
I have been using H&R Block software since 20 years or so. However, since 2021, I am having a very bad experience with the software since I have the software on Mac. I did report the problem for 2021 too. The problem became worse for 2022. The problem is I cannot enter data using interview. After I enter any data, the program crashes. I had to use the form for every entry. it is very painful and error prone. I had reported this problem again in sometime back in November 2021 for 2022 return. The worse situation is when we enter the bank details, there is no form for that. My daughter used web version and it trapped her to use tax-pro service and they are absolutely irresponsible. I do plan to change software next year onwards.
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to prepare, Hard to import documents

No iBond support for refunds
on April 16, 2023

from Dallas
Does not provide support for Form 8888 to use up to $5000 of my return for the paper iBond. I will change software if not included for 2023, after many years with H&R Block
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Easily Handles Complex Tax Issues
on April 15, 2023
Posted by: Snowy Egret
from Carlsbad, CA
Most helpful features are importation of previous year's data and importation of dividends, interest, and capital gains. Areas that need improvement are itemized lists that don't provide association with specific entries, a "Planning" section that is unclear and difficult to use, and no way to do state tax planning or print state estimated tax forms.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents
I would recommend this to a friend!
