All below are H&R Block 2024 Deluxe w/ State.
Bitdefender Included:
https://www.newegg.com/Product/Co...bo.4761813

And before anyone needs to make comments, it includes 5 Federal e-files and 1 state program. State e-files are $19.99 each unless you're in a special state that has mandated a set price. The Deluxe version of H&R Block DOWNLOAD SOFTWARE (NOT online/app) will do investments (Schedule D) while the online/app version of Deluxe will not.

Turbotax can handle a federal return with 2 states?
They both can for added cost. $40 for an additional state software plus $20-25 e-file fee.

Is the Bitdefender bundle for both Mac and PC? The H&R block software image shows Mac and PC, but the Bitdefender image shows just PC.

There are few workarounds. The best I think is (you need two computers, physical or virtual):
Install state-1 on computer-1
Install state-2 on computer-2.
On comuter-2 go to installation directory -> Program -> State. There will be directory with state-2 abbreviation. Copy it as-is to computer-1.
Now you have both states on computer-1
Enjoy!
I have used this method for the 20+ years I have lived in one state and worked in another. Easy to do if you know where to look for the program files.

What do you expect out of $20 software? I don't care what software I'm using, I stay informed of the tax laws to maximize my refund and use the software simply for the easy data calculation and form backup. Hold!!
I am glad I found the H&R Block Web Version.It's a simple interview like I was looking for.

none - NordVPN is better.

Quote from Pi.314 :
Which VPN is the best?
How long does it last? 1yr?

Heck, which bundle is the best?

won't use either 'freebie' even if I was paid for $5.

These VPN/AV are of little use but bogging your computer down.

Quote from Justin09 :
I'm torn between waiting or just biting the bullet although I have zero need for AV or VPN. I guess I'll be holding in hopes I can get something worth while bundled with it or a lower price :/

That is 100% false!.

Almost 100% of data entry is through guided sections and the software balks and fights back if you try to enter directly on a form . You can get to them but it takes some effort and doing and you must ignore prompts and warnings not to do form entry. I have very complicated return and it is all guided.

Why do you lie and share misformation? It is not like you can be confused about it is bald faced lie.

I have a complex return and usually do not see form till I am ready to print to file. I juo back and forth in section to enter or check data if I think I missed something. That section data get transferred to the forms and you never or rarely see a a form on screen. Once in blue moon at error check it will pop up form to check and maybe correct directly on it but it is rare.

I am really tired of people confusing people on something as critical a tax prep and can not understand you motivation in doing so. I can show you exactly what I talk about which si truth with screen caps if need be.

The download also has simple interview style interface. You do not enter on the forms but through guided sections. That user lied to you and it will likely cost you more. You may find that web version ends up costing you much more in the long run. Web version are an absolute ripoff compared to desktop.

Web versions offer much less and do less compared to the desktop versions. All desktop versions Basic, Deluxe and Premium will do self employment and rental income and capital gains, stocks crypto etc. You will need higher cost online versions to do that. For many fairly standard tax situations that the desktop software does online versions will make you upgrade as they will not have the forms included.

I do hope you do not find that your case but any way you look at it that user is real jerk for lying and misleading you.

Do not fall for upsells to higher versions. Most people that think they need Premium do not. They do the same forms.

Deluxe handles very complex tax situations and in twenty years of use I have not found anything it could not do for me. That includes self employment , 1009 and LLC income along with the new 1099K stuff. It handle rental income. It handles business expenses and deductions, credit, depreciation and business use of vehicle long with the home office stuff. It handles investments accounts and capital gains along with crypto.

From what I can tell it just Imports stuff which does work but the online versions of both TurboTax and H&R Block only do integration with coin tracker which still works when you export the file to be imported into the desktop software it's just not as good sometimes but I did that last year and it seem to be good enough
