I was an independent contractor first half of 2018(1099'd) then employed as salaried associate second half the year (w-2) with two different companies but in same industry. I'm finally back filing and half a few questions regarding filing in general and using Turbo Tax Deluxe specifically.
1. Should I file two returns one for w-2 and the other against the 1099?
2. If I do file one return with both incomes, I have quite a bit of business expenses I'll need to associate with the 1099, If I use Turbo Tax Deluxe to file will it walk me through associating those expenses against the 1099 on a schedule C? Or will I have to manually complete the Schedule C?
Reason for second question is I've actually started a return and nowhere in the process did it "funnel" off questions associating business expenses to the 1099, unless I just missed the "branching" input question.
Thanks in advance for any and all assistance
