1099er...Erroneous entries on SE Form
On my 2020 TurboTax return...on the printable PDF...I have two entries that seem very odd; and which I did not enter any info for (AND...they're both in a different font than the rest of the typewriter-like text/#'s...???)
The first is on Line 7 of SE Part I (Maximum amount of combined wages and self-employment earnings subject to social security tax)...listed as $377,700.
The second is Line 14 of SE Part II (Maximum income for farm optional method)...listed as $5,640.
I'm not a farmer (I'm an independent insurance inspector)...& I had no farm income whatsoever.
I'd like to figure out what these two entries mean...or if they're even legitimate...before I send this (already late) return of to the IRS. Anyone know anything about this?
thanx in advance,
77

Those amounts are pre-printed on the Schedule SE based on the Internal Revenue code.
Line 7 on Schedule SE is $137,700 which is the maximum amount of earned income subject to Social Security tax.
Line 14 on Schedule SE is $5,640 which is the maximum amount for the Optional Method to figure net earnings from farm income.

Looking through my forms I see
Optional Methods To Figure Net Earnings
Farm Optional Method.
I don't have a farm. My self employment is sales. I have never selected anything about a farm.
Please help before I file. It is showing on Schedule SE.
Is This correct or an error?

Business & farm
Schedule SE is used to figure your self-employment tax, whether you operate a farm or another type of business.
The section for Farm Optional Method, has $6,040 on line 14. This is part of the preprinted form. As long as you don't have a figure on line 15, the Farm Optional Method has not been used on your tax return.
