Your answer is not helpful. I have already looked at the list of codes on pages 17-18. This is the only relevant information I could find "611000 Educational services (including schools, colleges, & universities)". Is there any more specific code or is this the appropriate code for the business I described?
The list provided by the IRS cannot describe all activities. I would suggest 541990 - All other professional, scientific,
& technical services
I apologize if my last reply sounded snarky. I am taking this classification more seriously due to the Qualified Business Income deduction. I am not sure which, 611000 or 541990, would be more appropriate (and more safe for the deduction)? I could find reasons for either classification.
