Schedule 2 is used to calculate additional taxes you might have, like excess advance premium tax credit, self employment tax, additional tax on social security and Medicare tax on Medicare tax on wages.  If TurboTax is calculating Schedule 2 it must be because you have an additional tax.  

 

Review your return, and see what additional tax is being calculated on Schedule 2, once you know what tax it is, you could have more information as to what is causing TurboTax to complete this schedule.  


What is IRS Form 1040 Schedule 2?

 

How do I preview my TurboTax Online return before filing?
