I appreciate keeping my information to myself rather than using a Tax Service. I first used H&R in the mid 90's when my tax preparer decided to go into another vocation. Left in the lurch, I bought an H&R program. Through the years, that is a lot of taxes!! My favorite part is that I can take my time, go back to a certain section and check my entries or change them. The program also guides you every step of the way. All this from the privacy of your own home!

Inaccurate and can't be submitted
The IRS filing was rejected with no reason provided. The state tax burden calculation is far too high. Need to manually review every document and mail in a return. What was the point?

    Caveat Past-Year filers!
    Past-Years software does not state at the outset that "E-Filing" is usually NOT possible! This can delay laggards into a false sense of deadlines, and forthright expectations.

    H&R Block Deluxe
    Very easy to use and dependable in helping get back the most tax deductions and lower tax owed. Been using for over 20 years. Never have had any issues.

    Navigation issues
    I've used this software for many years, and for some reason, I found it difficult to navigate this year. I could find a form or interview for a form, but it constantly would continue on even if I had already completed a section. Also I had difficulty with my mileage deductions since I have two different C schedules, keep track of mileage for each one with the same vehicle, but the software would only take one deduction for the car rather than a separate deduction for the car for each business.

    Thorough and helpful
    HRB walks me through each painful step of the tax process. Sometimes navigation is a bit of a challenge but the help function gets me through it well

    Reproducible Results Each Year
    Pretty Easy To Use but there are errors in Schedule A that have been there for YEARS and go uncorrected. It has a 5 Federal e-file upload capacity, but who really needs that many. I refuse to pay to send in state. They should drop 2 federal filings and add free state to the package. Calculations seem to be good. Each year pulls certain data from the previous year to reduce the need to retype info.

    Love H&R Block
    Easy to use. By clicking whatever applies to you, the next screen lets you enter your details (numbers). The hardest part about doing your own taxes is gathering your information. If you cannot finish and have to exit, it's easy to save and return. I've been using this program for many years. Each new tax season the program will import the last year's data. Never pay an accountant again. It's affordable.

    You get what you pay for.
    Less than happy with the product. Top version of software does has quite a few areas that are not well supported or integrated. On line support or chat was less than inspiring. Overall cheaper than turbo tax and tax act, but you get what you pay for.

    Good overall
    Overall, the software is easy to use and does some of the heavy lifting for me, which I appreciate. It didn't produce an accurate QBI number, so I had to do it manually, and the IRS disagreed with how I calculated it (no penalties, thankfully). The chat support was also helpful when the IRS rejected my e-file, even though the AGI number they wanted from the previous year (to confirm my identity) was correct. The chat can be improved, though. It wasn't clear whether someone was coming for several minutes, so I almost closed the window, thinking it wasn't working.

    Software good, but IRS does not want me to e-file.
    It was relatively straight forward to use. My only issue is that the IRS would not accept the e-file, because the AGI from the previous year did not match. I called the hotline and the IRS verified that I had correct figure, but my return was still being rejected. This is the second year in a row that I have not been able to e- file and submitted a paper return.

    Great tool
    Takes you step by step and helps you know how much you owe as you add w2s and other income, and then how much your deductions help you. If you don't know, you just go through anyway and the questions will help it figure out if you need to turn in anything for that topic. Still could use help understanding the whole investment part, though…

    Best tax software on the market!
    We've used H&R Block software for decades. The software guides you through everything very carefully, and we especially appreciate the 1099 import feature where you can import all your capital gains/losses automatically. Wonder feature and make everything very easy.

    Best Way To Do The Dreaded Taxes
    Taxes are not fun, but H&R Block makes the task easier and simpler to understand with clear instruction. It also gives reminders for something that might otherwise be overlooked. I have used this software for many years and would highly recommend it..

    Skip the middleman.
    I have used this software for several years now. I takes all the guesswork out of preparing annual federal tax forms. Helps prevent errors and makes filing so easy. If I can do it anybody can and I can significantly reduce the cost of preparing complicated forms by doing it myself.
