If you were paid on a 1099-MISC, your income might be subject to self-employment tax.
To see how your taxes were calculated, you can preview your 1040, using these steps:
- In the black bar on the left of your screen, click Tax Tools >Tools
- In the Tools Center, click View Tax Summary. You can see the Total Tax and Refund/Balance Due on the summary.
- If you prefer, you can click Preview My 1040 in the black bar on the left.
- To get back to your return, click Back (also in the black bar).
NOTE: Since your income is low, you may qualify for the earned income credit (EIC). To do this:
- Click the Deductions & Credits tab.
- Under the You and Your Family section, click the Start/Revisit box next to Earned Income Credit (EIC).
- Continue through the screens, entering the requested information.
