I normally complete a schedule C. I am a coach but one entity paid me with a W-2. How do I write off the miles and expenses. Do I need to put the w-2 in the section for w-2 and not put it in the income section under the schedule c section? I normally get a 1099 but they paid with a w-2.
You'll need to sign in or create an account to connect with an expert.
That is correct. They paid you as an employee.
As an employee, you cannot claim expenses.
Oh that hurts for sure considering that I spent over 900 hours and was paid penny for what I normally get.
If you received a W-2, your employer considers you as an employee. The Tax Cut and Job Act of 2017 suspended unreimbursed employee business expense until 2026. You will enter the W-2 in the W-2 section and not enter it in the income section under the Schedule C section.
