User, here's your question is you want to paste and re-post it.

    TurboTax "Federal Refund" ignores "Self-Employment Tax"

I did my taxes manually and then came to TurboTax to double check. It calculates a larger refund than I do. The strange thing is that the refund amount is off by exactly the amount of the self-employment tax, in my case $374. This amount shows up correctly when I look at the section specifically about the self-employment tax, but the federal refund amount ignores it.

Is there some way that TurboTax figured out to appropriately avoid paying the self-employment tax, or is it a bug in the software?

Thanks! It seems strange that they wouldn't even let me see my own question and see that it has no answers, and explain why the question was removed. I'm surprised that the forum isn't full of people asking what happened to their questions!

Lots of threads disappear, even with comments, if there is no "Answer" after 6 days.  If I see an active thread about to disappear in the next day, sometimes I will "answer"  with the words such as "To save thread."

I see you already got a quick comment in your new thread.   Good luck.
