Line 32a on Schedule C indicates all investment is ''At-Risk''.   You can follow these instructions below to change this entry in TurboTax Online:

  • Open your tax return
  • Type “sch c" in the search box, top right of your screen, then hit enter
  • Click the "jump to sch c" link in the search results.
  • You will arrive at the Your Self-Employed work summary
  • Click Edit next to the business where you need to make a change
  • Scroll down to Uncommon Situations (it is right under the list of expenses) and click Edit 
  • Uncheck the box that says - I have money invested in this business that I'm not at risk of losing; that is, certain cash, property, or borrowed amounts that are protected from loss.
  • If you have no boxes checked, choose none of the above and hit Continue

This will move the checkmark from 32b to 32a.
