Here are some additional steps to help resolve this issue with your Form 8995A not populating:

 

  1. Double-Check Your Answers:
    • Go to the "qualified business income" section under Business Summary and review your answers. Use the steps provided earlier for changing your work description for guidance.
  2. Net Profit:
    • Does your business have a net profit for 2024? If not, you don't qualify for Qualified Business Income (QBI).
  3. SSTB Check:
    • Is your new "work description" still considered a Specified Service Trade or Business (SSTB)? Here is a more complete list of SSTB business types.
  4. Taxable Income:
    • If your taxable income is $191,950 or more (or $383,900 if filing jointly), the deduction may be reduced or eliminated.
