Yes. When you enter anything (except where you can enter notary income) to adjust the Sch Se, when you try and create the efile it will not let you even create it (Returns with adjusments to SE income must be paper filed). Still waiting for ATX to contact me like they said they would...From 01-07 Service and Support was great for me. This restructuring has really screwed things up. I like the software, which is why I come back, but if this is how support is going to be from now on, it is time for me to move on.

If you use MAX then when you open a 1099 form a 1096 form will automatically open with it. This has all the information required in sending the copies to the IRS. If you don't, go to the IRS website and you can print 1099 and 1096 forms and instructions.

Everytime I use the ATX PDF, or my own PDF software (as a printer), or just print to my actual printer, as soon as the printing is done the next thing I try and do the program will crash. Never had this problem in years past. I don't know if it is Vista or ATX?????

"Simply List what it is and the dollar amount" When you do this, you can not efile, that is what I have been trying to say. I have no idea if it trip anything. I hate the Clergy worksheet. I want to go back in time and not have to do them (and have to send them in as well for efiles).

Yeah I do not want to have to offset the SE amount by reporting notary income, but that might be my only choice until ATX gets this fixed.

Needed a break and looked on their website. Looks like anyone can open a Liberty for $30-60K. You have to pay them a percentage of your gross return fees as well. After this info I am sure all of you will be rushing to get a franchise started so you have have half drunk statue of liberty's outside your office!!! All you need to do is attend a 5 day training course and you are qualified!!! So why did all of us spend years learning how to do this when you can learn everything in 5 days???

However, you will still have to paper file. Any adjustments made manually to Sch SE will not efile.

I waited forever for Tech support. I sent them a return to show how it is not calculating. They said they will work on it and call me back. I will post if I hear anything.

I am having the same problem. I do returns for over 300 ministers, and as you can imagine many of them are 4361 exempt. This problem is backing up my work load considerably. Every year since 2002 checking the 4361 box on top of Sch Se adjusts the SE tax to zero for ministry income. However this year it is not wokring. I can make an adjustment on Sch SE to zero it out, but then the return will not efile. All adjusted Sch SE require paper file. HELP!!!
