H&R Block Tax Software Deluxe 2025 PC/Mac [Key Card]

My gazillionth year of using H&R Block. I am very pleased with it. In most every situation it clearly explains what (data) is needed and why. It walks my through the entries for my silent partnership in a straight forward manner. A suggestion: I am new to RMDs world et al, and I think it could be streamlined a little. For instance, the program knows my birthday and my 1099-R's. Omitting rollovers, it could total relevant distributions for use in the RMD section. With my birth date, it could calculate the required RMD.

I have used this app for many years and have always found it does a great job. However, on my HP laptops. I find the font in the questionnaires too small. I can enlarge the fonts, but the "next" buttons go off-screen. At my age, the font is very difficult to read. Please fix.

For the most part, this is an excellent product. BUT, it made a mistake on my Oregon state return. It missed calculating the "Kicker". Fortunately, the state saw that error, fixed it and sent me even larger refund. This feature should have been addressed by the software.

We have been buying the same product for years and generally have been satisfied. Although we were able to finish and file our returns, it took much longer than it should have because of two issues. First, there was a glitch in the section to report % of dividends from U.S. Treasury obligations. If the checkbox is NOT CHECKED but there is accidentally an amount in the % box on the next screen, it will still calculate a figure. The second issue had to do with entering an market discount adjustment in the interest income section. A message popped up that indicated we needed to report the interest but not how. The AI help file was useless. There were no instructions and not a logical pathway to guide us on how make the entry. It was only after a lot of hit and miss attempts did we figure it out. We literally wasted about 4 hours tracking down these issues. Bottom line, the software has been good for us over the years but this year, we were a little let down.

I've used H&R Block Deluxe for the past six or seven years. This is the first year I've been dissatisfied. Two reasons. First: Until a last-minute update (the week before the filing deadline), the software could not calculate the QBI deduction. This was frustrating and had me looking at alternative software before the necessary update finally came through. Second, as I prepared to e-file my federal and state returns, I learned the software would not e-file my state return (D.C.) this year. Wow. Not a good look.

I only had one issue and that was in the completion in about to transmit to the IRS the AGI for me and my wife are the same and the software did not accept that AGI It did not give an error code it just not accepted the AGI. Instead of doing an E – file. I had to print and mail both my State and federal taxes

I don't get the additional % fee on credit card paying, 2.49% fee as opposed to 1.75% fee directly, GREED! so I didn't go through H&R Block provided link. Otherwise, it was fine, there were some issues that seemed like software bugs having to go back and correct values that were not updated properly within in the software

I've been using the software for more than 5 years. This year was the least pleasant of all. 1) I'm on their mailing list. When I got the email to buy this years version, it was supposed to be the best available price. It was available online for less from other vendors. 2) it was unreliable early in January. I entered one return twice and it crashed out before I decided to wait a week for an update. 3) updates were happening after I filed. Did the updates change my taxes? Who knows? 4) charging me to file my state taxes has been an issue the whole time. Why isn't that included? 5) When I tried to pay online using my credit card, they wanted to charge a percentage of the amount. It wasn't ovbvious til I got too far in that that corporate tax on my federal tax would be happening. I wasn't able to back out and pay by check online. I ended up printing and mailing my return. Overall, I'm inclined to look elsewhere for next years return.

I have used this software for years. 1. This year HR Block has not made it possible to download my tax information from Merrill Lynch. Other tax software has. Sadly I had already started my taxes when I discovered this. 2. Because to the snafu I tried to apply for an extension. This also did not work. I spent more than an hour getting it corrected.

Surely the world's WORST User Interface! The Interview sequence bears no resemblance to the IRS forms and the questions are often confusing as I try to figure out what is really being asked for. The inability to jump to the source for many calculated values is a real problem trying to figure out where something came from and how it was calculated. Just wasted almost all day trying to get a real estate installment sale entered. TERRIBLE User Interface !!!!!! Software does not deal well with AZ state tax credits - always have to print and mail because H&R Blah can't manage it.
