Thank you for your response. It clarified the process of filing through TurboTax. However, I still have a question about whether I need to be formally added to my wife's Sole Proprietorship. I intend to use her DBA for my work as an independent contractor (C2C) on a 1099 basis. If we file taxes jointly with individual Schedule C forms, does that automatically qualify us as a Qualified Joint Venture (QJV)? Or are there specific changes required for my wife's existing sole proprietorship at the state level?
