Complete Tax

Hi, all! Has anyone used Complete Tax? I have my taxes all filled out but the one thing I cannot seem to figure out is how to let them know what income came from notarizations, as we don't have to pay SE tax on those wages (although we still have to claim it towards TOTAL income). Any advice would be appreciated! If I have to, I'll bail on Complete Tax. Does the H&R Block program (I think it is TaxCut) ask any notary specific questions??

Thanks!

Don't know about those two programs - I use TurboTax...they have specific questions for notary work.

TurboTax works great.

I pay extra for the better business version but it is still cheap & easy enough.

Yep, taxcut asks about notary income.

Check the Sch C in the program, do they give the option(pull down tab,etc) for Notary fees.?
If not, maybe you could adjust the SE form itself Did you look in the HELP.?

I'm not familiar with that software. I use TurboTax Home & Business. Regardless, you should be able to make the adjustment even if it's not automatically built into the program. Try going to the Schedule SE & clicking on "adjustments". There must be a way for you to make that adjustment.
