H&R Block is the largest US tax preparation chain with about 9,000 retail offices during peak tax season (January through April 15) and roughly 4,000 year-round offices, owned by H&R Block Inc. (NYSE:HRB), headquartered in Kansas City Missouri and founded in 1955 by brothers Henry W. Bloch and Richard Bloch (the “H” and “R” in the company name), offering in-office tax preparation, the Block Advisors small-business and self-employed sub-brand, online DIY software at hrblock.com, and Tax Pro Go drop-off service.

The questions readers actually ask: what time does H&R Block open today, when does the office close, are they open Sunday during tax season, what are the off-season hours, are they open on Tax Day, Presidents Day, and Easter, and locating a tax prep counter inside Walmart during peak season.

Two H&R Block specific things worth knowing: hours change dramatically by season. Peak tax season (January through mid-April) most offices run extended 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM Saturday, and 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM Sunday at large offices, with many adding additional appointment slots and walk-in capacity. Off-season (May through December) most year-round offices reduce to 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM Monday through Friday with limited or no Saturday and Sunday hours, and seasonal-only offices close entirely from May through early December. Tax prep counters inside many Walmart stores operate during peak season only. Second-largest tax-prep competitor Jackson Hewitt runs an even heavier inside-Walmart footprint, with about 3,000 of its 5,500 peak-season offices located inside Walmart stores.

The standalone H&R Block office locator will indicate which Walmart locations host tax-prep counters in your area.

Do I need an appointment at H&R Block?

Walk-ins are accepted at most H&R Block offices, but appointments (booked at hrblock.com or via phone) are strongly recommended during peak tax season (January through April 15) to avoid wait times that can exceed two hours during the Tax Day rush.

Block Advisors offices are typically open year-round with full Monday-Friday hours regardless of tax season.
