Deductions & credits

You stated that you are self-employed.  What adjusted gross income are you reporting on line 11a of the IRS form 1040?

 

Perhaps your self-employment income alone exceeds the dollar limit for a person to be eligible for the qualified overtime deduction reported on a W-2?

 

This TurboTax Help states:

 

The overtime deduction is gradually phased out – potentially to $0 – if your modified adjusted gross income exceeds $150,000 ($300,000 for joint filers).
