Same/Same with H&R Block. You get through all requirements only to see a "Date Required" for any transactions associated with the 1099-R. Try the "Robo-Help" and you get "I need to connect you to...." which is code for we are going to charge you $40 for assistance from a "live person." At the push of a "button" Robo-help indicated information for the 1099-R had been imported. Hmmmm......how did it happen that they had that info to begin with? And then I get a "date required" for 182 friggin' items. I'm thinking I've got nothing better to do for the next few hours how to I do that? Hmmmmmm......apparently I can't without paying someone $40. Therefore I will download the paper forms from the IRS and do it the old fashioned way. Yeah, it's a lot of forms and will take a lot of time on my part, but I'm **bleep** near 72 years old and set in my ways. Bottom line.......don't tell me it's free unless it's **bleep**ing free!
