Some Glitches

My sole proprietorship receives a very small royalty for published music. This year it was only $25. At one point my H&R Block software insisted I had more than a $5000 loss because of this royalty– and I did NOT enter it as a rental. Not sure how I finally fixed this problem, but it was very frustrating & time consuming. I understand taxes quite well– I was a CFP at one time. So I expect tax preparation software to be logical and clear.
I had some trouble entering data for a property I sold and directions of where to go for assistance were hard to locate. It took too long and involved an extensive search. Also, the was some problem with entering Misc. income. I correctly entered the amount where the program asked for it, but upon the last step where the program indicates problems, I had to enter it into the form.
Wow! This program saved me over $100 as compared to having a tax preparer do my return. I had one form I didn't know how to complete, and the program walked me through the process question by question.
I have been using this software for my tax returns for over 15 years. I have compared with other software, and every year, H&R block beat the others for the refund.
