It’s tax day in the U.S. and one of the largest tax preparation companies said some users experienced issues with their software.
In a social media post, H&R Block confirmed that some people using the desktop version of their software were unable to submit returns electronically.
“We are aware of an issue preventing some desktop software users from e-filing their returns. Online clients and clients working with our tax professionals virtually or in person are not impacted.” The company posted.

H&R Block told users to try again later or to print and mail their returns.
The company said the web-based version of their software and people meeting virtually or in-person with tax professionals are not impacted.
Some users reported being charged multiple times for each attempt made to file. H&R Block responded to those concerns, telling customers that the temporary authorization holds would expire and that they would not be charged.
H&R Block said the problem was resolved Monday afternoon.
We are happy to report the issue that was affecting a small number of our downloadable desktop software users has been resolved.
