This year, you will pay a big tax penalty if you didn’t have health coverage for 2015. IMPORTANT* This program factors in the penalty at the beginning, so if your like me and you are looking at your refund amount, it will look significantly lower until the end of the process when you verify that you had health coverage. For me, this was very confusing. I spent like an hour or more redoing my taxes, because the refund amount seemed way off. It isn’t till the very end that you figure out that it’s low, because they penalize you for Obama care until you prove you have it.

Otherwise I like the H&R program. I have used it for years. I can’t give it 5 stars because you have the hidden cost of paying for additional state e-file programs and additional amounts to efile your state returns. Otherwise it’s all good “”
