H&R Block (NYSE:HRB) is the only tax prep company giving
do-it-yourself clients the opportunity to have their tax return
reviewed remotely by a tax pro before submitting it to the IRS –

that’s not the case for H&R Block clients,” said Heather Watts,
H&R Block vice president and general manager of digital
products. “H&R Block Best of Both provides an opportunity for
taxpayers who are unsure about their tax situation this year to

H&R Block Best of Both takes worry out of the
equation
With H&R Block Best of Both, DIY taxpayers who want the
convenience of working on their tax return when they have time,
don’t have to miss out on having a tax professional review their
return. Even longtime DIYers may experience changes in their
personal lives that they might not realize could impact their tax
situation.
Life changes – like sending a child to college, selling a home,
starting a business and taking care of elderly parents — can change
a tax situation. When DIY taxpayers have life changes they could
miss tax breaks, which could prevent them from getting the maximum
refund they are due. If taxpayers who usually do their own taxes
have doubts due to life changes this year, Best of Both can be a
good way to make sure they aren’t leaving money on the table.
Best of Both process is simple, convenient and comes
with H&R Block’s guarantees
All H&R Block Online Product DIYers can add-on Best of Both
when working in any online product, including the Free edition. The
cost of adding Best of Both is based on the complexity of the
individual tax return and ranges from $39.99 to $89.99.
After “completing” their return, Best of Both clients receive a
message letting them know their tax return was received and to whom
it was assigned. Clients and tax professionals communicate via a
secured email system and they also can talk on the phone if they
choose. Like with all other H&R Block tax preparation products,
clients receive the brand’s guarantees of maximum refund,
100-percent accuracy and 100-percent satisfaction.
“H&R Block Best of Both is not only simple and convenient,
but with it clients also get the same satisfaction and accuracy
guarantees all H&R Block clients get, while benefitting from
the company’s security features,” Watts said.
H&R Block is trusted with some of the most important
financial information its clients have. The company is dedicated to
protecting that information at every step in the process and it
takes many precautions to prevent unauthorized access.
