I'd go for a CPA. He/she will know the laws and the penalties and will be able to help make sure that you absolutely do or don't owe the government. The staff at those places like HR Block and your local "file your taxes" places are all staffed with seasonal employees, especially the big name companies... They hire these seasonal employees off the street, with little or no experience, and train them on the fly, then turn them loose on the general public.
The IRS really just wants you to file.... They <i>will</i> work with you, although there may be penalties, and they very rarely take any sort of criminal action against people who haven't filed who want to do what you want, square up with the government.
