Who should use H&R Block?
If you re doing your own taxes this year and, like me, willing to pay for convenience, you ll find an option that suits your needs at H&R Block. Anyone who hasn t filed taxes solo before or recently experienced significant life changes would benefit from the guidance H&R Block provides.
My situation is pretty simple I have W-2 income, a health savings account, and interest income from a high-yield savings account. I don t own a home, have any dependents, or invest outside of my retirement accounts. I use the Deluxe Online package to prepare and file both my federal and state returns (more on the specs of this option below).
