Somewhere in your expense entries, you indicated that you had a certain type of expense, but didn't enter an amount for it, so it flowed to your return as a 0 value. Run back through your Farm income and expense entries (click here if using TurboTax Online/Mobile) and make sure you delete any expense categories that you didn't end up using

 

If you left these expenses blank accidentally, you can also update the amounts needed. 

 

Then, return to the Final review and check the return again before proceeding to file. 

 

If you can't find the problem in the expenses, you may have begun to enter Sec. 179 expense on fixed assets before deciding to leave that blank instead. Return to the business assets and depreciation portion of the Farm income menu, and revisit your entries there as well. 

 

If you need extra time, filing an extension by April 15, 2026, moves your submission deadline to October 15. But remember any taxes owed are still due in full by the original April 15 date.
