Get your taxes done using TurboTax

My business is a education business, I am a SCUBA - Instructor, EMT- Instructor, AHA: ACLS,PALS,BLS - Instructor. I work as a ER Nurse. I have filed my business taxes for several years now, I have all my Assets: home office, vehicle, computer, etc. Expenses: continuing education, membership dues, periodicals, and various other expenses. Granted this year I worked mostly as a Nurse, and most of the classes I did teach were AHA classes ... and those classes are attended by nurses but they are not limited to nurses, all medical personnel are required to take BLS (CPR) Furthermore these classes are open to the public not just the hospital I work at (although they did host most of the classes I taught this year).

So to rephrase my question; do I have to loose my education business because I get a w-2? And is there any benefit to not having my business?
