OK...I finally got it to work but I had to go by it a slightly different route.
On the page where it says to enter your wages, I kept deleting my 1099-NEC information. The page would show it was gone, my refund would recalculate and everything seemed good. When I reentered the info, I would still get the error for the Schedule C. When I put in 1099-NEC in the search and jumped to that direct page, it had listed several of the 1099-NECs that I entered and thought I deleted. I deleted them from that page and was finally able to reenter the information again and the return was accepted.
why didn't turbo tax produce a schedule C? I can not find one, I have entered all my 1099-nec
I can not click on that link.. error message keeps recurring. what do I do?
The link did not work for me either @appleabcd - If you want to review your income on Schedule C, search for Schedule C in the search bar and use the Jump to Schedule C link to be taken there. Once you are in the Schedule C entry screen, choose to EDIT your Self-Employment Income. Your 1099-NEC should be included there. If you keep getting errors, delete that 1099-NEC and re-enter it from that screen. You won't be able to fix it from the review, so try going back inside your entries - it will be easier to fix from there.
thank you. I will try this however unfortunately I have already submitted my taxes, I am expecting it to be returned or delayed because I did not realize schedule C was missing until after I submitted . I am upset over this. It is very late here so I will try and do what you suggest tomorrow , I can at least try and fix my errors and be ready when IRS returns my taxes. I really wonder why turbo tax did not automatically create a schedule C ? That is upsetting . Thank you
I see. If you have already filed, you can't make the changes until you do the amendment and the amendment form for 2020 won't be ready until 03/25. However, are you sure that Schedule C was not included with the 1099-NEC income on it? The Schedule C income should be reflected on Line 3 of Schedule 1 and this amount will also be included on your Form 1040 on Line 8. @appleabcd
hello. I just read your response from last night. I double checked my return and I see Form 1040 line 8 has an amount filled in however nothing on line 3 of schedule 1. It is blank. What does that mean? I guess that is why no schedule C printed out when I printed a copy before I submitted, I am new at doing taxes so that is why I did not noticed until after I submitted it that I do not have a printed copy. So line 3 of Schedule 1 I did notice that it says attach Schedule C but I thought turbo tax would do that? do you know what this all means? thank you
IRS 1040 Schedule C Profit or Loss From Business reports self-employment income.
Schedule C balances report to IRS Form 1040 Schedule 1 line 3.
If you have self-employment income to be reported, an amended tax return 1040X will be available March 25.
Forms availability here.
Thank you, this really works. 👍👍👍
I need to fill out a schedule c for 2019 and. 2020
You would report your income as Self employment income on Schedule C.
You need to upgrade to Turbo Tax Self-Employed (Online) or TurboTax Home & Business (desktop).
You’ll have a chance to enter self-employment expenses on your return.
To report the income on your return:
If you already filed your 2019 return, you need to amend it to make any changes.
How to amend (change or correct) a return you already filed?
how to file my tax
To clarify your question, do you want to enter a business Schedule C for self-employment?
“Schedule C” won’t let me put a negative number in, and doesn’t ask about my business expenses. I spent about $700 last year in preparation for my business this year, and only took in $45. How can I show that loss?
If you wish to enter business expenses into your program, you may need to upgrade to Turbo Tax Self-Employed if using the online version or Turbo Tax Home and Business if using desktop.
Other Turbo Tax versions will allow you to enter self-employed income but not expenses.
