Expenses were falling into the wrong business

I had 2 businesses, each with different schedule C's. When I entered the vehicle info/mileage, it fell into the first Sch C. I actually had to delete them, and re-enter them a 2nd time for them to fall into the correct business. Additionally, I had to resubmit my payment, as my state return did not appear. I am applying for the refund of the 2nd payment now...and hopefully there is no problem receiving it back.
I am glad i bought this program this year. In addition to my regular earnings, this year i have a Sole Proprietorship and this made it easy to do the return correctly.
It took me 3 hours to do my Federal and State Taxes including a rental property. It helps that I used the software last year so most of the data was imported, I just had to update the numbers. I highly recommend.
We have been using H&R Premium now for 20 years. Very happy with the program accuracy and support! Had an audit several years ago, all went well and had full support in preparation. H&R tax software is top of the line!
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
I have used this version for about 8 years and rely on it for accurate tax return preparation. I have become familiar and comfortable with the interview process and prefer it. The Calif version gave me some problems this year when it did not automatically accept renter's credit entry. I had to override the entry to make it stick. This should not happen since my daughter fully qualified for the credit on her own return.
The 2018 program worked fine, despite the massive changes to the tax code and the IRS forms. I found a couple of non-critical issues that I could work around with minimal effort.
I have been using HRBlock at home for over 10 years. This year I had a lot of trouble with the real estate rental income. This was not new for this year and it didn't import the information from 2017. I finally had to delete everything regarding this and completely start over. This is the first time I have had any trouble with the program. I also worked at HR Block as a tax professional for 10 years before I started using the program at home. Was disappointed in the trouble I had this year. I realize everything underwent a dramatic change this year but that was done early in the year so you should have had plenty of time to rewrite these programs.
