Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You do not need to file the hobby loss and you do not need to file a Schedule C, so you should not need to use the Self Employed/Home and Business version of TurboTax. For tax purposes you are treated as a sole proprietorship, the fact that you're operating as an LLC is irrelevant to the IRS, so there is no requirement for you to file with no income and no deductible expenses. And you can take your Standard Deduction as normal. Hope this helps!
