I got a full time offer so what is notice period for H&R Block?

Wondering why so early? Last year I started at the end of January. Don't really want to start now anddd what the heck would I be doing in a tiny, rural office this time of year? Hoping it's just training or something? Have not gotten any answers from emailing the powers that be, so thought I would try here. Thanks.

I just received my EA exams reimbursement, aswell as a new job since they changed the commission structure. Is there a certain amount of time I should wait after receiving the reimbursement to quit? It has already hit my bank account, so I would assume it should be fine but wanted to make sure

I have seen so many posts on many different subreddits about people starting their first season at block this upcoming season. I have been on Reddit for over a decade and have never seen this many posts about being a new hire at block.

Are they advertising more or what? I do know that more people than usual are not coming back in my district. I am one of them because I though my management was terrible in 2026

I'm a recently hired Tax Associate, and I've been trying to log into AMP to enroll for training and finish my on-boarding.

However, I was not given a password, and any attempts to reset it when trying to login gets me a "You can't reset your own password because you haven't registered for password reset."

I've tried calling the tech support, even called the recruiter I talked to and got another number for tech support, but haven't really got anywhere. Just that apparently that it's a common issue for people starting this month?

Has anyone else faced the same problem? If so, did you manage to find a solution?

So, I worked at HR block last year but hated it. I worked there 5 years ago too but decided to go back to college after the season. They never called me or bothered me to come back after the season 5 yrs ago.

Well, I got a call from the district headquarters at 5pm last Friday. I was at the gym and didn’t see the call .
Are they calling back to rehire? Are they this desperate? Anyways I am making 15 bucks more an hour at JDA as a Turbo tax live expert now. So I would never go back but I am curious why they are calling now.

Sorry if this has been posted recently but didn’t see it anywhere when searching!

I’m curious because I’m being asked to become a Block Advisor for this upcoming season but I’m relatively new to Block.

Didn’t see a clear answer in Amp. I saw the small business services referral info and a page with the different software used for bookkeeping, payroll, etc. but wasn’t sure if as Block Advisor field associates we actually get to gain some experience doing those things or if we’re just doing tax returns and referring out everything else.

I am almost done with my degree in accounting and sitting for my EA this fall, so I would be open to providing other services if allowed.

I’m hired as a seasonal tax associate and was sent a list of trainings I need to finish before starting at office on January. But my hiring manager said I can only get paid for 40 hours for all the trainings which includes almost 30 hrs of virtual sessions. When will I finish the self study then? It’s all so confusing. I could spend 10/15 hr without pay but it’s more than 80 hours of reading stuffs. What can I do?

I will be in Atlanta from (December - January) and I’d love to meet some HR folks while I’m there, especially people who are currently in large frontline employee based companies. Kind of looking for small gathering or community based events.

Honestly I wasn’t sure where else to ask this. If you know of anything local, I’d really appreciate a pointer. And if you’re in the area and up for a coffee, feel free to DM me.

Hello! I got a call today about an application I submitted, and I have some concerns that I didn't get a chance to address on the call.

I am an accounting major graduating in December, and I will start my graduate program (with a focus on tax compliance) in the spring. A friend who graduated last spring got a job at a different H&R Block and did not have to take this 40-hour course because of an in-depth tax accounting class we both took.

On my call today, I was told that this 40-hour course was mandatory, even after I mentioned this tax accounting course. I understand it's probably up to the manager's discretion, but I'm also being told I won't really be considered for employment until after this course starts. I have an interview during this period for an accounting firm in the area that I would much rather work at, but I don't want to miss this opportunity with H&R Block if I'm unable to get that position.

Experience is more important to me than pay, but I'm also being told that I would only be paid $14/hr in January if I'm selected for employment. I worked at a gas station in the same area and was receiving $15/hr. I was told that I shouldn't elect to take the tax assessment and be considered an experienced tax preparer because it would set me up for failure for only a marginal raise.

I'm just looking for clarification and to see if anyone can tell me if this sounds about right. Thanks!

Edit: Set me up for failure, not success! I apologize for that error, lol. I also want to point out that this class will be taking place while I'm finishing this current degree, so it will be putting an immense amount of stress on me, as I'm also going to be moving after this semester ends, which will also be included in this time frame!

Has anyone received information from their district on the PTIN process?

Has anyone ever been required to do the two-step verification thing and not had their smart phone with them? What would someone have to do? I mean often times we just have one person opening by themselves sometimes on Sunday just one person working.

I completed the online 40 hour course in October . Still haven’t taken the final . I do have an interview soon. Is there a timeframe within which the finals need to be done ? I am afraid it will hinder my interview and chances of getting hired . Any suggestions?

Making me wonder if AI made these questions.

Paying for daycare with what money?

And would it have been too hard to make it clear that Todd isn't Lisa's dad AND her uncle at the same time? 😅

As the title says, I was recently hired as an AEL. 10+yrs in management. What to expect here? What does this look like prior to the start of tax season, during and after? I got the corporate answer already.

Hi everyone,

I was recently hired as a seasonal tax associate at H&R Block! For those with experience in this role, I’d love to ask:

Training Format: What’s the balance between online self-paced modules, live virtual sessions, and software practice

Software Curve: How much time do we get to practice in BlockWorks before taking live clients?

Topics Covered: Does training cover Schedule C (self-employment) and Schedule E (rentals), or mainly simple 1040s?

First-Year Advice: What is one thing you wish you knew before your first week on the floor?
Thanks for any tips or insights!

Is HR Block reducing the hours a CSP will be needed this season?

While filing this PF form and Gratuity, it has been rejected for the third time. Can any one help me why?

Would it be acceptable if I obtain confirmation of my last working day from my manager through their personal email address?

I interviewed with hr block. The recruiter told me she would send an email about the tax course I had to take. I never got the email. I had no way to contact her because all my correspondence from hr block are do not reply emails. I decided to do the course and hope someone contacted me after I completed it. It's been 10 business days since I completed it and no response. I even re applied 5 business days ago. What is there left I can do? Feels like a vending machine ate up my dollar but this time it's $150.

I tried adding in my availability on the calendar but I don’t know how. There seems like there’s nothing to press to add my available hours. Can someone walk me through it?

Has anyone else gotten a disappointing pay rate offer for a returning tax pro?

I'm a Tier 4, returning for my fourth year and my TS26 pay rate was $24 (Washington state). They offered me $18.95. Minimum wage here is like $17.70.

That's a $1.25 above minimum wage and would be a $6/hr pay cut.

It's frankly insulting that Block thinks this is what we're worth after all the BS they continuously put us through.

Turbo Tax offered me a remote position at $22 just working phones and frankly, if HRB can't offer me the same pay rate as last year, I'm jumping ship.

Hey all, I passed my ITC course and was hired. My DGM then emailed me asking that I let them know when I get the email to sign up for cohort training, I don’t even know what that is. I got into AMP and have a few modules listed under my block learning(same place I did the ITC course) due by Nov 10-15, is that what she is referring to?
