Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I may have identified the problem with QBI not transferring to the QBI Deduction Worksheet.

The "Qualified Business Income Deduction Smart Worksheet" in Schedule C is showing the correct "Allowable QBI after loss limits" on Line 4c, but Line 5a (next line - "Total self-employed deductions") transposes the same exact amount ("Allowable QBI"), resulting in Line 5b, "Schedule C profit (loss) after S.E. deductions" to equal zero. All of the lines after 5b, therefore, show 0.

The actual S.E. deduction amount from Schedule SE Line 13, "Deduction for one-half of self employment tax" has not transferred to Line 5a.
