Works well (2010-03-10) : 4/5
Although this edition is not as user friendly as previous editions I found that it works very well. Instructions on how to use it could have been better but they were easier enough to decipher. Once you get started it is relatively easy to complete the returns and to file them electronically. All in all it works very well.
BEWARE: Do your research before buying this product (2010-03-10) : 1/5
I have used TurboTax for many years, and like many, I was irritated by many of their "money grubbing" changes, as well as their yearly price increases. Also how they recommend "Premiere" version if you have any stocks or investments.
Finally decided to try H&R Block on a Gold Box special. At least I'm not out full price. Should have read some of the other one star reviews.
It will NOT import data from brokerage funds (like Charles Schwab) - only each individual fund, and then only if you register with each fund.
TurboTax imported it last year in seconds. H&R Block expects me to type in each entry - probably would take all day.
Not worth the few dollars savings. My time is worth more than $2 an hour.
Can't comment on the rest of the program - I stopped at that point and will buy TurboTax this year (and probably continue to get taken for the Intuit ride in the future - so no, I'm not a great fan of theirs either.
Won't even waste my time sending it back, since Amazon will only refund 50% less shipping - probably wouldn't pay for the mailer to send it.
No advantage to the premium edition over the delux version (2010-03-09) : 2/5
I was very disappointed in the premium version the H&R Block program. I have used the Delux version in the past and been satisfied with the features of that program. The premium program was recommended if you have stock transactions & or a rental. The help in those areas was so basic it was of no value. The premium program is not worth the extra money, the Delux version does everything necessary to complete your taxes. All the forms are there for stock sales profit & loss capital gains ect.
Taxcut or H&R Block 2009 Tax software (2010-03-03) : 5/5
Great product and Amazon did what they do so well, sold it to me at the right price with a good delivery time.
H&R Block At Home Premier (2010-03-03) : 5/5
Excellent product. Very easy to use. I have used both Turbox Tax and H&R Block's Tax Cut. I prefer the H&R Block tax software because it's easier to understand. Also, the price is better than Turbo Tax.
