Giveaway: 5 Free Downloads of H&R Block Federal Premium Software

by Kay Lynn

It’s that time of year again and no I didn’t mean Valentines’ Day (although that is important). Americans are faced with the tax deadline of April 18th. The question is how do you get your taxes prepared?

For years, we used an accountant until I convinced my husband that we could do the same thing for a lot less using tax software. We selected H&R Block’s software (formerly named TaxCut) and have used it for several years now.

I find it easy to use as the interview process asks for all the information needed to prepare our return. We never had any problems submitting our returns.

Software Description

Free H&R Block Premium Edition tax preparation software, a $49.95 value

Premium Edition includes features for Homeowners & Investors

· Step-by-step guidance for Federal Tax Filing

· Mortgage interest and charitable tax deduction maximizers

· Sale of stocks, bonds and mutual funds

· Easily imports your W-2, 1099 and last year’s information from TurboTax® and H&R Block At Homeâ„¢ software

· Includes 5 free federal e-files. State tax filing available for an additional fee.

· Accurate Calculations Guarantee

· Free Audit Support

· 100% Satisfaction 60-day Money-back Guarantee

· Supports most tax forms

NOTE: Entering the key code will “wipe out” $55 from the total owed. (The total might also include the cost of one or more state filings which would cost additional fees.) Each state filing is $34.95. The codes are valued at $55 each which should also cover sales tax for the redeemer.
