It seems some of us desktop users are having the same issues again we had in 2024 tfs with the interview questions not asking about Home Office % use. Is the only way to fix this is to go into Forms? I have net profit well over what my Home Office deduction is, so nothing about it bringing my profit to negative. All my income 1099-MISC, so this should go towards lowering my net profit, not a “deduction” as others phrase it. When compared Desktop to using the Web app, it correctly reduces my net profit.
Form 8829 shows my business use of home expenses, but Schedule C line 30 is zero and Form 8829’s gross income limitation (Line 8 ) is showing as zero. I believe the software is using Schedule C Line 28 or Line 29 incorrectly to limit the home office deduction, so the home office amount isn’t flowing into Schedule C line 30, which overstates my net profit and self-employment tax.
Any help here again?
