It would be helpful if you could generate a balance due by reducing an itemized deduction or reducing Federal withholding in your W-2 to $1.
In TurboTax Online Self-Employed, I was able to enter a self-employment tax deferral and pass Review. Then I was able to remove self-employment tax deferral and pass Review. Follow these steps.

- Across the top of the screen, click on Deductions & credits.
- Under Your tax breaks, scroll down to Self-employment tax deferral.
- Click on Edit/Add to the right of Self-employment tax deferral.
- At the screen Do you want more time to pay your self-employment tax?, click Yes.
- At the screen Let's start by getting your eligible income, I have left the dollar amount that was previously entered, others change this amount to $0.
- Click on Continue.
- At the screen Tell us how much you'd like to defer, change the dollar amount to $0.
- Click Continue.
- Click through Federal Review to make sure than the Review issue has been removed.
- At the screen Some of your self-employment taxes may be eligible, click Skip.
