Only if you used the H&R Block website. There was no tracking in the downloadable software, which is what this deal is for.

Why do they even call it "deluxe plus state" when you still have to pay at least another $25 to Efile state? As far as I'm concerned this is a scam operation between these tax companies and state tax collectors. I wish consumer protectionists would stop this nonsense.
Depends where you live. Here in NY they can't charge you for state e file

Sadly, that is the new business model of most companies nowadays.

If you were part of the OPM breach that impacted most prior and current military, contactors, dependents, etc., your private information has been released to China (and likely Russia, Iran and North Korea) already.

Our government decided that all contracts must go to the lowest bidder. It was part of downsizing government and moving money to the private sector. It moved a lot of money to corporations, but didn't save any money. Privacy and information security were put on the back burner and outsourced. We got what we paid for.

Not that we should give up, but the picture is not pretty.

Keep a watchful eye on your accounts each month in case something does happen. The sooner you stop it, the better. Data breaches happen all over, probably much more then what is reported. My rather worthless web server is constantly pounded by bots trying to break in.

What's the cheapest way to get 2 states? Seems like 2 separate buys are less than an additional state for Deluxe for example.
you could use two separate computers, see this thread

It is for deluxe + state if the $20 gift card works, which nets to $14.99.


Even though newegg deal was for win, there was an option to d/l win or mac in the email confirmation after purchase. I did not try the mac, but the win d/l , installed and activated just fine.

It's a gift card bundle


https://www.newegg.com/h-r-block-...6832732174


you can scroll through which companies they offer. I got the Lowes gift card which came within minutes of purchase and it states no expiration date.


$34.99 less $20 gift card or $14.99

You keep posting these 2 lines at every deal related to H&R Block. Are you paid by TurboTax?

No guarantee but I got Deluxe+state for $15 last two years around Feb-March if you can wait. Deals always come mid March to early April.

Quote from stuff4dave :
Yes, it does cost quite a bit extra to efile your state return, but if you don't get the plus state version, it won't even calculate your state return. You can still print and mail it in for the price of postage.
Plus, some states (NY, for example) do not charge for e-file.

Two options (first used by me, second is a suggestion from one of SDers). In either case you have to have 2 computers (physical or virtual, doesn't matter).

Option #1:
1. Install SW on both computers. Do not install state
2. Prepare federal return on computer #1
3. Copy T22 file from computer #1 to #2
4. Install state 1 on computer #1 and state 2 on computer #2
5. Prepare state 1 on computer #1 and state 2 on computer #2

Option #2 (again, I personally did not try it, but it should work):
1. Install SW on both computers with respective states.
2. Copy states 2 installation file from computer #2 to #1 and install it.
3. Now you should have both states installed on computer #1

Good luck!

https://gethrblock.com/apple works as well.
The apple micro site is for last year, you can tell from the wording in the footer of the page.
I think I figured out that this year's theme is plural fruit. So "grapes", "lemons", "fruits", etc.
I haven't been able to find one as cheap as last year.

That doesn't make sense since the poster says TurboTax is one of those guilty. But maybe you're going by memory, as TurboTax was not guilty of doing this, in which case your statement would make sense. The list is H&R Block, TaxAct and TaxSlayer. I've been using H&R Block and it's predecessor over 30 years, always the downloaded version. Even though it didn't directly impact me, I am still pissed and will not purchase from them again. Unfortunately, the majority will continue to buy from them, so these companies have no reason to part from their devious untrustworthy ways.

Looking to trade my Turbotax Premier 2022 download version activation for $5 amazon gc. It works for both PC and Mac, it includes 1 federal efile and 1 state download (state efile costs $20 extra, unless you live in NY then it's free. This is the same across all download versions bought online)

HR Block did collect data but removed that function since it was reported.

"... H&R Block told The Markup it removed the pixel from its tax filing website "to stop any client tax information from being collected." The Markup verified that it had been removed."
