It’s that time of year, time to start filing your taxes. For many, that means getting a nice tax refund back in the next few weeks. While getting a check from the IRS is a great thing, Amazon and H&R Block have teamed up, making it easier for you to get even more cash out of your refund. By purchasing the H&R Block software (there are a few different versions, and the one needed will depend on the forms and such you need to file), and opting to get the cash back in form of an Amazon gift card, you can get an extra 5% back. And that can add up pretty quickly.
Filing your taxes with H&R Block is super easy. You can do everything online, H&R Block also double-checks your return to make sure everything is done correctly. But it also checks to make sure that you are maximizing your tax refund. Since no one likes missing out on money their entitled too. For tax software, H&R Block offers up Basic Tax Software which is best for simple tax situations. There’s also Deluxe Tax Software which is best for homeowners and investors, Premium Tax Software which is made for self-employed and/or rental property owners. Finally, there is Premium & Business Tax Software available for small business owners. The prices range from $15 to $70, which is also discounted (up to $10) from the price you would pay at H&R Block’s website or its locations. Basically, H&R Block makes it easy for you to do your taxes without having to leave your home, and maximize your return, which is also a good thing.
Now, depending on your tax refund, you may not want to convert the entire thing over to an Amazon gift card. Luckily, Amazon has made it flexible. So if you have a return of $5,000, but only want to convert $1,000 into a gift card, you can do just that. And also get an additional $50 on top of that, to spend on Amazon’s website. This is a good way to get some extra cash, especially if you already purchase a lot of items from Amazon, which the chances of that are actually pretty high.
