Question

How do I get to the section to say my 1099-Misc income of $15000 is not qualified business income, as it is just free lance work?

I mistakenly indicated my free lance work was qualified business income.  It is not, it is work I do above and beyond my full time job.  But I cannot figure out how to get back to that section and undo my mistake.  Please advise.

The Qualified Business Income (QBI) question comes up for a business as you are leaving that section of your return. 

To get back to the question, go to your list of Schedule C businesses on the “Here’s the business info we have so far” page and click Edit beside the business name.  You do not need to go into any of the income or expense categories.  Click Continue at the bottom of the page.  The QBI question will be in the follow-up screens that you see as you are getting out of the business section.

See the TurboTax article below for more information about what qualifies as QBI.
