Broken software By Steve Job
List of problems:
1. Not all graphics load properly. A lot of the buttons ("Cancel", "Help", "Back") that navigate through the program are only boxes with question marks. Classic missing graphic. I have to guess what to hit on each screen.
2. The main window is too small and text isn't aligned properly. There is a left-right scrollbar on every screen that I have to move to read everything.
3. Clicking on Help brings up this message:
"Cannot open topic screen file /Applications/H&R Block 2011.app/Contents/Resources/Essentials/us/Screens/NAMEFS.cxml for reading. See TopicScreenXmlReader::read()."
In other words, doesn't work.
Other notes, you can only import previous tax files from 2010, not 2009 or before. (I used TurboTax online last year, and they only provide PDF files of previous years.)Federal Fine, State not so much By CMD97
My wife and I have used this software in the past for our federal return with little to no problem. This year, I worked in a different state for part of the year and the software was unable to properly figure out what needed to be done with the separation of one person working in two different states, with one of them as a non-resident. Overall, it was very easy for federal, but if you have any craziness whatsoever with the state taxes, this probably isn't the software for you.Great Value By Outdoors 516
I got the Mac download version and installed it with no issues. I have used H & R Block tax software several times before and this years version is very similar to the previous ones. I did encounter one minor software bug during the preparation of my return. I used the interview process to enter a 1099-R income form and the software did not allow me to enter the fact that this income was a Substantially Equal Payment Plan (SEPP). I was able to get around it by manually checking a box on the form. Other than that, everything worked great.
