Here are the steps the link your W-2 to your correct Schedule C. If you have a 1099-MISC for another business, it will need to go on its own schedule C. You can have multiple Scedules Cs on one tax return. Just give the businesses different descriptions, and TurboTax will walk you through setting each of them up. You will end up with multiple self-employment profiles TurboTax. For the Statutory Income from a W-2, do this:
- In TurboTax, go to Federal Taxes, then Wages & Income and enter/edit your W-2
- Ensure that Box 13 "statutory employee" is checked
- Click Continue when finished
- Click Continue again
- Check "None of the above" if this is accurate, and click Continue
- "Any Related Business Expenses?" Click "Yes"
- Go through the interview questions. You will set up your new Schedule C (statutory) here
- Your W-2 Income is now linked to Schedule C
Don't link the W-2 to the 1099-MISC business.
