Retirement tax questions

This question is associated with the option to defer paying some of your self-employment tax due to Covid.  

 

If you do not want to defer any of the self-employment tax, then enter '0' for line 18.  

 

If you do wish to defer paying the self-employment tax, then line 18 is asking for the portion of your Schedule C and/or Schedule F profit that is attributed to March 27, 2020 through December 31, 2020.
