Has my social security tax been paid?

[warhoverz]

I used TurboTax Small Business this year, and I saw that a Schedule C-EZ and a Schedule SE had been completed. Does this mean that my social security tax and Medicare tax has been paid on my Uber wages for 2016? Or do I need to file elsewhere?

When you report self-employment income in TurboTax, the program generates Schedule SE to report your self-employment tax.  Self-employment tax is essentially Social Security and Medicare taxes for self-employed taxpayers.  So there's no need to file a separate return or pay Medicare and Social Security taxes elsewhere.  Your taxes are done.
