H&R Block Tax Promo Codes & Discount Codes

About H&R Block
Founded in 1955, H&R Block is one of the biggest names in tax-prep assistance. The brand has changed with new technology and customer expectations, managing to successfully cater to both businesses and private citizens. The company offers programs for everyone from students to self-employed small business starters. Although it only gets attention in the first three months of the year, when taxes are due, the company works hard throughout the rest of the nine months preparing documents for larger customers and providing on-demand support for subscribers. The company may be best known for extending tax refund advances to its clients. H&R Block is also developing new software and financial tools to keep pace with the competition.

Annual Sales
H&R Block’s biggest sales coincide with tax season. The company's tax season sale includes discounts, usually 30-50%, off filing services. Customers can expect around $20 Deluxe, Premium and Self-Employed online filing options as well as around $30 off expert-assisted programs. These deals usually begin in late January and run through February or early March.

Customer Service
H&R Block has advanced FAQ sections for lots of topics. However, if customers need additional help with specific questions or they need to speak to a representative, they can call 1-800-472-5625.

Chat Support
Chat support is only available to customers who have downloaded and are using H&R Block software. To access it, customers can click the “Chat for support” button on their screen at any time.

App Info
H&R Block offers two mobile apps. One is exclusively for help filing through H&R Block, but MyBlock goes several steps further, offering additional savings opportunities and free tools. Users can find both by scrolling to the bottom of any page on HRBlock.com and looking at the footer. A “Mobile Apps” link appears near the bottom of the “Resources” column.

Refund Advance
Although it isn’t a discount, it’s H&R Block’s biggest claim to fame, and it’s a big bonus for customers’ finances. Once customers file with H&R Block, the company offers an advance of the customer’s expected tax return. Customers don't have to wait for the government to process their return and get their money right away.

Refer-A-Friend
H&R Block offers customers the chance to give their friends a discount while earning a cash reward. Once customers file their taxes with H&R Block, they’re eligible for a referral code they can then share with friends and family. Anytime customers use the code to file online, they get $10 off their fee and their referrer gets a $10 e-transfer.

MyBlock
This app provides a couple of great savings opportunities. First of all, it helps users manage their Emerald Card account. This card can earn cash back throughout the year. Secondly, MyBlock lets users get a head start on taxes by taking pictures of and organizing relevant documents and receipts throughout the year. It’s an important savings tool, especially for those who plan to self-file.

Emerald Card
H&R Block’s Emerald Card is a pre-paid card customers can access their tax refunds through. The card comes with cash-back bonuses at some retailers, and users can add funds to their cards throughout the year. H&R Block is in the process of adding a credit line to their Emerald Cards, and there is also a savings option in the works.

No-Contact Expert Assistance
H&R Block still has physical locations, but the company has adapted to also offering expert-assisted filing online. Customers get to interact live with an expert and enjoy all the perks of going into an H&R Block office without actually having to leave their couch.
