I entered the expenses as deduction instead of directly on Sch C. Realized this after I printed out the forms and I already efiled and IRS Federal accepted.
You can't claim 2017 business expenses on next year's tax return; they must be deducted on your 2017 tax return, so yes, you will need to do an amendment for 2017. Instructions are below. You will delete the job-related expenses that were reported on Schedule A and report them on Schedule C, Profit and Loss from Business. https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/3288565
I entered them as Job Expenses under the deduction section but should have entered on Schedule C
I am thinking I need to file an amended complaint if I want to change this deduction. Agreement?
