Browser choice affects download

Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2020

DO NOT use the Google Chrome browser to download. It interferes with the download somehow and leaves you with a file that won't run because it claims H&R Block is in "read-only" mode. I typically use Google Chrome and kept getting the same error after dragging the icon to my applications folder and trying to open the program, even with a direct download link from H&R Block after calling customer service. I noticed the "minimum system requirements" mentioned Safari. After switching to Safari to download the file, I was able to successfully get things running. Browser choice matters, in this case.
H&R Block's customer service was very supportive trying to help figure this out and I've always had good experiences with the software.

Trash Software from Tax Prep Big Box

Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2020

Trash overpriced software from the Walmart of tax preparation firms. Easily the worst tax software I’ve used, and I’ve gone through the full range - I’d rather complete the forms manually than use H&R Block again. Be warned: one state is supposedly included in the purchase price, while additional states will cost $40, then at the very end find out that it’ll cost you $20 to file each state (including the one included). Only filing one state? It’ll cost you an extra $20 if you use this software. These are H&R Block imposed charges, not state filing fees - a classic bait and switch. Further, the “tax help” I’m accustomed to having access to in other tax software, particularly around investment-related and other less straightforward reporting/filing questions, was basically useless in this software (but for another $40 you can chat with an outsourced tax rep/bot)! Oh, and after entering all of my bank account info for electronic fund transfer, a subsequent screen popped up saying I can only make the payment manually to one of the states (yet it accepted my bank info for the transfer) causing high anxiety potentially facing a late penalty. Turns out the payments went through as originally expected (as paid for with those exorbitant, redundant fees) but contrary to what the software told me would happen after entering the info. Trash overpriced software from the Walmart of tax preparation firms. (Btw, don’t bother calling any local branches for even basic assistance with submission verification or any other question because they’re not only disgruntled sweatshop accountants, but they’re not even on the same system - as one of them put it, “the H&R Block software is a different company than the H&R Block locations”). Brilliant.

Works fine on Mac OS X Yosemite v10.10.5

Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2019

I've used this software (H&R Block Tax State + Deluxe) every year since 2013. I used to use the discs and now have a computer without a CD drive so I have been downloading successfully since 2017. I felt compelled to leave a positive review because the first few reviews on here are all negative.

I downloaded and installed the Mac version of the 2019 software onto my Mac running OS X Yosemite v10.10.5 without any issues. Will have to wait until January 10th for the final tax forms to be available from the IRS before the software can be updated and used to create a return. I like to purchase this software ahead of time whenever it goes on sale. This year I purchased on Black Friday. I was able to import last year's return easily and am just waiting until the updates in January and of course until I have all of my tax forms (W2's don't come out until late January) before actually doing my tax return.

If this is your first time purchasing this software, confirm that your computer version is supported by the software and that you are purchasing the correct platform (Windows/PC or Mac) before buying. The product description and images show which operating systems are supported by this version. Also, while Amazon's official return policy for software is that it can not be returned, if you do mistakenly purchase something that doesn't work for you, contact customer service. Their customer service is usually good about making exceptions when they are able to.

Pretty easy, convenience fee costs more than program

Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2020

I’m not great at doing my taxes but this program made it pretty easy, I used a 2019 MacBook Air. The program was $35 but the “free” federal e filing had a $45 convenience fee, which was lame. I’d rather have known that in advance then been surprised after going through all the motions . That said, it was still cheaper than taking them somewhere and I had some extra time to spare during quarantine.

Refund Offer

Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2020

No problem installing on Mojave 10.14.6. Have used this software for past 5 years of returns. Good Stuff!

The problem is the 4% Amazon refund offer. To activate, there is a question right at the beginning of the interview. If you say "NO" to the refund, that question will never appear again even if you delete the return and start over. Unlike other questions, where one can change answers or edit - no big deal - that is why using tax software is so wonderful. As long as you do not have auto-save 'on', you can put in many 'what if' scenarios with no permanent effect. But the refund offer? GONE!

After searching for questions on Amazon for this issue, it appears that the entire refund ($5000 max refund) must be used for the gift card. You cannot just get the 4% bonus as a gift card and the actual refund as a check from IRS - the whole refund goes towards the gift card.

At first I was upset about the missing offer, but when I learned the whole refund goes to Amazon? Forget it! I will take the money!
