Now we haven’t received the stimulus check due to choosing this particular deduction. We both made less than $45k and the calculator says we aren’t eligible. Can someone explain this for me please?

I don't have money for my phone bill or even internet at this time so I was wondering if anyone may have any advice as to how I can get my kids stimulus check since I AM THE ONE TAKING CARE OF THEM. She had the nerve to get mad and act like a victum calling me ungrateful?? It weird I haven't asked her for a penny of the income tax she got from my kids which was $5,107 dollars.

The Turbotax software keeps giving me errors regarding the Car &amp; Truck worksheet..telling me that the AMT depreciation allowed is too large as well as the Depreciation allowed or allowable. I am at a loss as to where I am making my mistake with the values entered. I am unsure of what to list as the "business portion of the sale price".

I start the app in the morning and start looking for a job (which usually takes 30-60 mins as my area is oversaturated with shoppers currently) If nothing comes up, i drive around a bit as changing location helps. While driving around, i drop my kid at daycare. So at what point should i start the mile tracker app to record my business miles?&nbsp;<BR />In the afternoon, i do the same. I finish an order, than i start driving around, if nothing comes up until its time to pick kid up from daycare, i pick him up, but i still keep app open, if anything comes in after picking him up, i just take him with me to shop and than we go home.<BR />Another quiestion: i didnt track my miles for the first 2 months i was working as i didnt know its tax deductible. So cant deduct anything from that..But i bought a new iphone right after starting this job as with my old phone i couldnt do this job as it was so slow, i couldnt get any orders (you need fast phone to be able to get batches in an oversaturated area). Can i deduct the purchase of the phone? I use the phone all day while working and than i come home to sleep so dont really use it after work.&nbsp;<BR />***I work as a licensed Realtor on the days i dont do the Instacart. Work from home, self employed, no dedicated office space other than a desk. I bought an ipad mini and pay for mobile data for it as i need to show customers photos of properties/documents etc during showings. Is the ipad purchase and monthly data deductible? How about mileage from my home to showing a house and back home?

My husband and I filed our taxes back in February and we still haven’t gotten our return. We used turbo tax and apparently there was a error and we caught it pretty quick so it shouldn’t have caused this kind of delay. It wasn’t amended but they had placed it under review. The stimulus doesn’t have anything to do with this delay from what I’ve been told. I can’t call the irs to talk to them as they have advised to call if it’s been over 60 days, no email address to write. I have checked the sites and it says my refund is being processed but it’s been stuck in that status for weeks. I don’t even have a progress bar on my app or the website. We have gotten a stimulus payment just waiting on our taxes. Is anyone else stuck in this predicament? What can I do? I’m a flipping professional at the waiting game but my patience is wearing thin and would like some answers.&nbsp;</P> Tue, 12 May 2020 10:10:18 GMT https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/self-employed-group/discussion/where-are-my-taxes/01/1583088#M1312 portersr04 2020-05-12T10:10:18Z How to submit quarterly payments for two separate self employed jobs https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/self-employed-group/discussion/how-to-submit-quarterly-payments-for-two-separate-self-employed-jobs/01/1573987#M1294 <P>I can't really find much info about this, so hopefully someone here can clear this up! I have been self-employed for about 2 years doing graphic design services. I use Quickbooks Self-Employed to calculate my expenses and income for my graphic design business, and it estimates my quarterly taxes which I then pay each quarter through Quickbooks. Super simple because it's all in one place.&nbsp;<BR /><BR />At the beginning of 2020, I started doing Shipt grocery delivery on the side for extra cash. This is contract work, so also a self-employed gig. I know that this is considered a different type of business and should be treated as such with the IRS. I'm just not sure how to go about calculating my quarterly taxes for this separate business and sending my payment to the IRS. The form 1040-ES (for calculating estimated tax) is very confusing to me... Can I do a rough estimate on my own of 20% of my quarterly earnings and pay that? Or can I just pay a little extra whenever I make my payments for my graphic design business? I'm just not sure if it's supposed to be a completely separate payment, or if that matters.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>I've made about $4000 so far this year doing Shipt so I'm estimating that I owe a little over $800 right now. However, I do not want to be penalized at the end of the year for paying too much or too little on my quarterly taxes.&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Thanks for any advice.&nbsp;</P> Thu, 07 May 2020 20:52:17 GMT https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/self-employed-group/discussion/how-to-submit-quarterly-payments-for-two-separate-self-employed-jobs/01/1573987#M1294 bryalvi 2020-05-07T20:52:17Z test https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/self-employed-group/discussion/test/01/1573757#M1293 <P>test</P> Thu, 07 May 2020 21:00:38 GMT https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/self-employed-group/discussion/test/01/1573757#M1293 CarolineS 2020-05-07T21:00:38Z I (self contractor) issued a Form 1099-MISC. to a self contractor that help me during last year https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/self-employed-group/discussion/i-self-contractor-issued-a-form-1099-misc-to-a-self-contractor-that-help-me-during-last-year/01/1571810#M1292 <P>I am a self contractor and for the first time, I hired a contractor during last year.

<description>
<P>I filed my taxes married filing separate and I chose standard deduction using Turbo Tax which picks that my husband can be claim on someone else’s taxes and he did the same. Now we haven’t received the stimulus check due to choosing this particular deduction. We both made less than $45k and the calculator says we aren’t eligible. Can someone explain this for me please? I tried calling the IRS but the wait time is forever. Thank you <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":folded_hands:">🙏</span>&nbsp;</P>

<P>I am a partner in a partnership. The partnership files a composite tax return in 10 states and I file in my resident state of Ohio. I am trying to enter taxes paid to other states for my Ohio return. TT won’t save the information unless I file a state return through them. It says to file a return before I enter the info.&nbsp;<BR /><BR /></P><P>This wasn’t the case last year. Has anyone figured out how to get credit for taxes paid to other states on composite returns in the 2019 software?</P>

<P>Free File has put me in an endless loop unable to file. I can’t log into TurboTax as it kicks me out immediately telling me to Free File on the web. And the that web page kicks me out because I don’t qualify to Free File. And apparently there is no online support for TurboTax, so while I’m stuck overseas they want me to call a US toll free number in the middle of the night!</P>

<description>
<P>Have a question as I go through everything this is in regards to TurboTax Business 2019:</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>1- We started a multi-member (wife and I, both own 50% equal shares) LLC incorporated in Delaware (we live in NYC), we also elected to be treated as an S-Corp by the IRS. When I first start the return as an "S-Corp" in the program, it asks for the name of the S-Corporation name and the for the DBA name. Now the thing is we have three DBAs, should I just enter one of them here? should I enter all of them separated by a comma? Where can I enter more than one DBA?

<P>So made around 290k as independent contractor which ended end August. Now got a normal job..</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Calculated my SSA and Medicare taxes off that income&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>So took the max 63.5k as deduction for 401k (employee and employer) and assume can write off medical expenses until end August.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>I understand i get a 20 pct business deduction as independent contractor.&nbsp; Is that based on gross income or after deductions.. Also seems there are income limits for the 20 pct deduction and does the fact I only worked 8 months as an IC matter?&nbsp; &nbsp;Should i say that my independent contractor business ended 31 December or put at end of contract.&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P>

<description>
<P>I am a Sole Proprietorship with 2 DBA names under the same EIN number.&nbsp; I recently expanded the business by adding another location and filed a new DBA name for the new location. So my question is when file the personal tax return, can I combine both locations income &amp; expense reported under one Schedule C or I need to report 2 separate Schedule C. The activity of both locations are the same but they just run under a different DBAs.&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Thanks</P>

<P>Does anyone know how I would report and pay my sales tax owed to my state? Form 568(California) doesn’t provide any location to document Sales tax and I’m a bit out of answers short of getting a tax man. This doesn’t seem to be a strong suite for Turbo Tax. Would appreciate any help!</P>

<description>
<P>I am an sole member LLC being treated as an S-Corp for tax purposes. I use a documented accountable plan to reimburse myself for business expenses such as mileage. I bought a new car in Nov 2019 (Personal vehicle) and used mileage for 2019. I know if I was not doing the S-corp I could use actual expenses and depreciation. Is it possible to use the business % of actual expenses and car depreciation instead of mileage for 2020 if it would be more advantageous and what car depreciation method would I use ? Thx</P>

<description>
<P>Hi, I'm A Mother Of Three, I am the sole provider for my three kids and ave been since day one. I let my sister file for my kids and Then in Januray turbo tax was giving me an issue because I didn't know my AGI number. It was only in April when I figured out my AGI but by this time Coronavirus hit, to make a long story short my sister got an extra 1,000 from the check and even though she knew I was facing homelessness she literally kept the 1,000 dollars and does not intend on giving it to me, now with this next one coming up I really need to know what I can do because this stimulus check can change everything for me, in a good way. I don't have money for my phone bill or even internet at this time so I was wondering if anyone may have any advice as to how I can get my kids stimulus check since I AM THE ONE TAKING CARE OF THEM. She had the nerve to get mad and act like a victum calling me ungrateful?? It weird I haven't asked her for a penny of the income tax she got from my kids which was $5,107 dollars. PLUS shes a truck driver so she still is working as we speak. I just need help I feel f**ked over</P>

<description>
<P>Hello All - I was supposed to file tax returns as "Married and filing Jointly", But my wife has already filed her 2019 tax returns as "Married and filing separately", this was done by mistake. My wife has already received her returns. Now, As per my understanding i have to amend my wife tax returns. I have not yet amended my wife's tax returns and below are some of my questions:</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>- As July 15, 2020 is the last date to file tax extension, Do i need to file for extension?&nbsp; ( i know its too late)</P><P>- If i amend my wife's tax returns now as "Married and filing Jointly", Do i still need to file for my extension? ( Considering amendment as paper filing)</P><P>- Also,i see latest update on IRS that amendment can be done electronically now. Is it possible on turbotax?&nbsp;<A href="https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs-announces-form-1040-x-electronic-filing-options-coming-this-su[product key removed]tone-reached-for-electronic-returns" target="_blank">https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs-announces-form-1040-x-electronic-filing-options-coming-this-su[product key removed]tone-reached-for-electronic-returns</A></P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Thanks in advance</P><P>Namanaa</P>

<description>
<P>Does anyone know why changing the amount of mortgage interest that i am deducting on my schedule E for my rental property causes my <SPAN><SPAN class="question">Qualified Plug-in Electric Drive Motor Vehicle Credit</SPAN></SPAN> to change? If i report the true amount of mortgage interest the $7500 credit i am eligible for only gives me about $2300. If I totally remove the mortgage interest it is giving me about $5500 of the $7500. I am not finding the correlation anywhere. This is supposed to be a 7500 deduction dollar for dollar to reduce my taxes owed i thought. i'm no where near 7500 in taxes owed, more like $10K so what am i not able to get the credit im eligible for and what the hell does my rental property have to do with this??</P>

(was under the impression it only went by my income from the same months...not, calculates your income for the whole year) Anyways, now that I have to pay the credits completely back, how do I deduct the premiums? I used Home &amp; Business and it says I need to y=tie my 1095-A to my schedule C??</P>

<P>Hi. I'm using TurboTax for my personal and business tax return. I own three homes, but have a home office in one of them. For my business schedule, Turbo Tax is including all the mortgage interest for all three homes, but if I delete the 'extra' homes from this list, won't it be deleted from my main tax return, too?</P><P>Not sure how best to handle this.&nbsp;</P><P>Thanks for any help and advice.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Brenda</P>

<title>How to claim home office remodel</title>

<description>
<P>I have a home office which is a separate building, but attached to the house via a breezeway. We've recently remodeled a bathroom, used by clients. The project was started in the fall of 2019, and I paid the construction company two deposits before the end of the year. It wasn't completed until 2020, so the final payment wasn't made until after the new year. How do I claim the cost when it's split between two years? Thanks for any advice! --ksb</P>

<description>
<P>Hi, I've been traveling in India for the past few years and have made enough to need to file in 2019. Have filed the federal return with no problems online with turbo tax but it won't let me file the state taxes. I assume I'd be a non resident (of Ohio) since I've been out of the country for the whole year, but in the dropdown that would let me select a different state there's simply a "non applicable" blank and then the dropdown for "alternate country" is impossible to fill. If I can efile somehow that would be best, but if not can someone point me out how to print then mail?&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>If this is the wrong place to ask this question I apologize; I couldn't figure out how to ask a question in the other forums!</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Thank you-</P>

Was a W-2 employee, now a 1099 contractor, how to use TurboTax for quarterly tax payments

</link>
<description>
<P>This is new to me. Retired recently in 2020 from a W-2 position. Most of income this year will be from the W-2 position. Now, they requested I return for some tasks as a 1099 contractor, part time, starting now, possibly through next year. I know I will need to pay quarterly taxes, but how? Unclear to me how to use TurboTax 2020 (?) for quarterly payments. Sounds like I need the Self Employed TurboTax, but I need the 2020 version, not the 2019 version? Or, what forms do I manually need to complete in addition to using TurboTax?&nbsp; Thx</P>

<title>Schedule A, State tax deduction</title>

<description>
<P>6/28/2020</P><P>Hello,</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>On Federal Schedule A, line 5A, I entered the number for the "State Tax deduction". Well, the so-called "State Tax deduction" is actually not the State Tax but State Tax withholding. So, I want to know if it is possible to only enter actual State Tax here, instead of State Tax withholding. Due to, the $10,000 limit, I am losing $4000 in deduction and then I will end up reporting State Tax refund as income for the next year. So, is it possible to use the actual State Tax amount (or close enough conservative # in favor of IRS) and avoid having to report State refund as taxable income next year?&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>kirit dave'</P><P>Incidentally, the number at line 5A essentially comes from W2 data and so it is difficult to alter it in Turbo Tax.&nbsp;</P>

Sale of business vehicle and depreciation recapture

<description>
<P>I have a vehicle that I placed in service in 2010. The total amount of depreciation I have taken on it is $13,512 and there has been no actual depreciation taken for about 5 years. My percentage of business use has varied over the years. The vehicle was purchased new for $30k. I sold the vehicle in May of 2019 for $12,500. The Turbotax software keeps giving me errors regarding the Car &amp; Truck worksheet..telling me that the AMT depreciation allowed is too large as well as the Depreciation allowed or allowable. I am at a loss as to where I am making my mistake with the values entered. I am unsure of what to list as the "business portion of the sale price". Do I use the % business use for 2019 since this is the year of sale? Even if I do that, it still gives me the same errors on the worksheet.</P>

<description>
<P>For years I have had to do the Sch C as a self employed theatre professional, with 1099 income and rarely a W2.&nbsp; But over the last two years, I have been employed full time and though I am still consulted etc, my 1099 work has dropped off and for the first time I have no 1099 income.&nbsp; Can or should I file a Sch C to reflect that I still have my business?&nbsp; I have a full office in the home, that has come in mighty handy since C19 and I have put that on the C over the years......or should I make this all unreimbursed business expenses in the dedutions area?&nbsp; If I go with a schedule C it will be the 3rd years with a loss, even though I have made more money they ever, just via the W2.</P>

<title>Home Baker in Texas</title>
<link>
https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/self-employed-group/discussion/home-baker-in-texas/01/1640038#M1417

<description>
<P>I have a small business as a home baker in Texas, where it’s allowed without a business permit as long as we make under 50k in one year. This is my first year doing it, and I’ve only made about 3k so far. This is my only “job,” and the only time I’ve filed taxes was in 2018 for a part time job. My question is, am I supposed to file taxes for this small business? If so, how would I go about it? I am very new to these things and have never been taught before.</P>

<title>turbotax calculates 2020 estimated taxes wrong?</title>

<description>
<P>For a given projected 2020 taxable income, TT shows a projected income tax that is significantly different from what you get in IRS's 2020 Tax Rate Schedule, as shown on "Estimated Taxes and Form W-4 Worksheet". (e.g., for a taxable income of $62,583, it calculates $2,578 vs I calculate value from schedule of $7,114, for married filing jointly). Seems wrong.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>(Note: If I say I only have WAGE income, then tax is calculated correctly. Problem occurs once you add Sched C income.)</P>

<title>Instacart deductions</title>
<link>
https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/self-employed-group/discussion/instacart-deductions/01/1626616#M1381
</link>
<description>
<P>Im self employed working for Instacart. I start the app in the morning and start looking for a job (which usually takes 30-60 mins as my area is oversaturated with shoppers currently) If nothing comes up, i drive around a bit as changing location helps. While driving around, i drop my kid at daycare. So at what point should i start the mile tracker app to record my business miles?&nbsp;<BR />In the afternoon, i do the same. I finish an order, than i start driving around, if nothing comes up until its time to pick kid up from daycare, i pick him up, but i still keep app open, if anything comes in after picking him up, i just take him with me to shop and than we go home.<BR />Another quiestion: i didnt track my miles for the first 2 months i was working as i didnt know its tax deductible. So cant deduct anything from that..But i bought a new iphone right after starting this job as with my old phone i couldnt do this job as it was so slow, i couldnt get any orders (you need fast phone to be able to get batches in an oversaturated area). Can i deduct the purchase of the phone? I use the phone all day while working and than i come home to sleep so dont really use it after work.&nbsp;<BR />***I work as a licensed Realtor on the days i dont do the Instacart. Work from home, self employed, no dedicated office space other than a desk. I bought an ipad mini and pay for mobile data for it as i need to show customers photos of properties/documents etc during showings. Is the ipad purchase and monthly data deductible? How about mileage from my home to showing a house and back home? (If i only show one property) ***<BR />Thank you in advance<BR /><BR /></P>

<P>I have completed my Tax Return but it is being rejected due to "the previous AGI numbers do not match, therefore cannot be approved" even though it's the same number since I've completed my taxes on TurboTax last year. Is this a computer error? Can't seem to get any help and virtual assistants/ bot aren't resourceful. How can I get help or be able to directly talk to a person of customer service?&nbsp;</P>

<P>Hey everyone!</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>I am a new LLC (incorporated last August) that elected S Corp status a couple months ago when I filed my 2019 return. I am very new to being self employed and didn’t pay myself a wage in 2019 or up until now in 2020, but I did pay for my family’s health insurance premiums through the business. I will be paying myself a salary this quarter 2.&nbsp;<BR /><BR /></P><P>My question is the following: Do I still need to file a form 941 for Q1 even if I didn’t pay myself a salary and thus don’t owe Federal Income Tax, Medicare Tax, or Social Security Tax? I understand I would be very late in filing it but do I still have to?&nbsp;<BR /><BR /></P><P>My second question: Can I file form 941 for Q2 (I shouldn’t owe more than $2,500 in taxes) in a few months and not get in trouble for not filing anything for Q1?&nbsp;<BR /><BR /></P><P>I really appreciate any help! I’ve been trying to find answers to these questions for days and cannot seems to find anything that answers my concerns.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Thanks in advance!&nbsp;</P>

<P><SPAN>Hi,</SPAN></P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>I'm behind on my taxes so I haven't received anything yet, nor do I know yet if I'll even qualify, but nonetheless...</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>1) Are people only receiving one (up-to) $1200 check/deposit for the duration of the entire shelter-in-place period of time?</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>- Or are there more than one payment, depending on how long someone's been out of work or financially impacted?</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>2) Let's say my taxes were filed today, have I then forfeited any potential stimulus payments from March 2020 til now? Ie, have I 'missed out' due to the supply running out after so much time has passed without claiming any of it?&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>- Or is it based on when the time-frame began that I stopped working, and the accumulated funds will be available indefinitely regardless of when I file my taxes?</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Thanks very much for any clarification!</P><P>Alex</P>

<P>I paid a Registered Agent to complete my 2018 taxes. The agent lied and did not file them. I notified the IRS upon learning this and quickly filed my own taxes via mail (electronic was closed for 2018). I just logged into my IRS account to make a payment and it’s STILL saying I haven’t filed 2018. I mailed this 3.5 months ago. Is this due to Covid-19?&nbsp;</P>

Car was totaled in October 2019.&nbsp;<BR /><BR />Data on the car:<BR />Purchase price ($12,617); claimed depreciation 2012-2018 ($857), data from the worksheet for the car in turbo tax, insurance paid $6612.98.&nbsp;<BR /><BR />1) How do I calculate gain/loss and report it in TurboTax?<BR />2) Turbo Tax has been flagging Depreciation, saying it's too large, so am I not computing the cost basis<BR />correctly?<BR /><BR /></P><P>I have read several questions and answers similar to my issue, but I am still confused about &nbsp;the actual process of number generating. &nbsp;The system is stuck on the depreciation and highlights it as an error when performing the "check" of the tax return.<BR /><BR />Thanks for any help.&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P>

<P>This year my K1 includes a Line 20Z Information entry. My group provided IRC Section 199A QBI Deduction computations, including Ordinary Business Income, W-2 Wages and Unadjusted Basis of Assets $ values and totals.&nbsp; However, it doesn't include how to calculate the deduction using the values provided.&nbsp; And there is no Schedule A provided with the K1. Our company provides no tax advisor.&nbsp; Does anyone know how to determine the correct line entry for Line 20Z Information?</P>

<description>
<P>I filed my taxes months ago on TurboTax free and still have not received my stimulus payment. I’m suppose to be in the first round of deposits because I am very low income. &nbsp;I received a state return nearly immediately direct deposit. Nothing federal even though it was “accepted” months ago. Everyone I know has by now received their checks or direct deposits unless they filed with turbo tax free. This is concerning me and the irs website does not work. I need this money ASAP but have no insights from TurboTax if this could possibly be an issue on their end. Is there anything I can do or am I just out of luck for the check?&nbsp;</P>

<description>
<P>Hello, I'm just completing my 2017, 2018, and 2019 taxes.&nbsp; I moved to Vietnam in late 2016.&nbsp; In 2017, I began teaching English online to Chinese students to make a living and am continuing to do so.&nbsp; I work for a company who issues me a 1099 Form every year.&nbsp; I visited the US during 2017 for 34 days.&nbsp; During that time, I had a temporary job while I was in the US who issued me a W-2.&nbsp; I entered my 1099 income and expenses including using a portion of my apartment to teach, which this information transferred to Schedule C and Form 8829 (Expenses for Business Use of Your Home).&nbsp; When I entered my information into the Foreign Earned Income section, it also asks for expenses and a housing exclusion.&nbsp; Am I supposed to "repeat" those same business and housing expenses?&nbsp; (someone told me I should not put them in both places).&nbsp; For the time being, I entered my income and business expenses to appear on Schedule C and only put my income under the Foreign Earned Income.&nbsp; The calculations for 2017 Turbo Tax states I have a negative Income or Loss, and that I can carry my NOL Forward.&nbsp; I'm now working on 2018 (even though I'm unsure about 2017, but haven't mailed them), and I do not know where or what amount I should put as the Carryover.&nbsp; I have read different publications, but I'm still unsure and confused.&nbsp; Thanks for your help!!!</P>

<title>earned income tax credit / refund</title>

<description>
<P>If one is 70 years old, on a small social security, ($10k yearly), and raising one young grandchild full time, and if, perhaps that person had some self employment for a portion of a year, (say, $5-7k), and had not reported or paid any self employment tax, when filing a 2019 tax return, would it 'normally' be of&nbsp; significant enough IETC benefit to report that income, via an amended return, and pay the tax. I am assuming, based on the very low income (not even the threshold required to file...but was done only in order to receive the stimulus funds), that there would be a decent refund. IE: With whatever late penalties etc., would they still avail of enough EITC to make it worth while?</P><P>Is there a formula or chart for something like this?</P>

<description>
<P>Hello so I am hoping someone could give me a little insight. My husband and I filed our taxes back in February and we still haven’t gotten our return. We used turbo tax and apparently there was a error and we caught it pretty quick so it shouldn’t have caused this kind of delay. It wasn’t amended but they had placed it under review. The stimulus doesn’t have anything to do with this delay from what I’ve been told. I can’t call the irs to talk to them as they have advised to call if it’s been over 60 days, no email address to write. I have checked the sites and it says my refund is being processed but it’s been stuck in that status for weeks. I don’t even have a progress bar on my app or the website. We have gotten a stimulus payment just waiting on our taxes. Is anyone else stuck in this predicament? What can I do? I’m a flipping professional at the waiting game but my patience is wearing thin and would like some answers.&nbsp;</P>

How to submit quarterly payments for two separate self employed jobs
</title>

<description>
<P>I can't really find much info about this, so hopefully someone here can clear this up! I have been self-employed for about 2 years doing graphic design services. I use Quickbooks Self-Employed to calculate my expenses and income for my graphic design business, and it estimates my quarterly taxes which I then pay each quarter through Quickbooks. Super simple because it's all in one place.&nbsp;<BR /><BR />At the beginning of 2020, I started doing Shipt grocery delivery on the side for extra cash. This is contract work, so also a self-employed gig. I know that this is considered a different type of business and should be treated as such with the IRS. I'm just not sure how to go about calculating my quarterly taxes for this separate business and sending my payment to the IRS. The form 1040-ES (for calculating estimated tax) is very confusing to me... Can I do a rough estimate on my own of 20% of my quarterly earnings and pay that? Or can I just pay a little extra whenever I make my payments for my graphic design business? I'm just not sure if it's supposed to be a completely separate payment, or if that matters.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>I've made about $4000 so far this year doing Shipt so I'm estimating that I owe a little over $800 right now. However, I do not want to be penalized at the end of the year for paying too much or too little on my quarterly taxes.&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Thanks for any advice.&nbsp;</P>

<P>Hello -</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>I am a self employed musician, and I have a large, detached studio behind the house that I purchased earlier this year. I also rent out a bedroom in my house. I am struggling to divide up my depreciation deductions for this year - do I need to subtract the cost basis of my home office from the total value of my house before calculating depreciation on my rental room? Or do I just use both percentages on the total value of the home? I apologize if this doesn’t make total sense - juggling the deductions for the two separate spaces has been a struggle. Any advice is much appreciated! Thank you <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":slightly_smiling_face:">🙂</span>&nbsp;</P>

<description>
<P>How can I prove I get paid for like babysitting and or sitting with an elderly woman for months now but of course I don't receive stubs? Is it almost like trying to prove you do "Gig jobs" for a living... If nothing is happening then of course I'm not contacted to perform income earning services the local few have been used to me doing on a daily basis jus to help people out ya know. But I couldn't try to apply for assistance or unemployment because I am no longer working steadily correct? As u can see I haven't filed taxes and am usually a dependent on my significant other tax form</P>

<P>Filing my schedule C for 2019 and I am stuck. Wages line 26.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>I need to show wages for the PPP application, but I paid my employees as independent contractors and provided them a 1099. Can that amount go in wages? &nbsp;instead of online 11 where they’re asking for contract labor.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Also. Have you guys filled out a payroll report for the PPP? If so is there a special form that you use?</P>

<title>PPP loan VS Unemployment</title>
<link>
https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/self-employed-group/discussion/ppp-loan-vs-unemployment/01/1528614#M1256

<description>
<P>I have not finished taxes yet for 2019 I have filed for unemployment and can file for PPP as an independent contractor. &nbsp;I made twice as much money in 2018 which is what I believe MN state unemployment will look at since 2019 taxes are not in correct? &nbsp;Otherwise I can take out the PPP loan but they use 2019 schedule c and I made half as much as last year so am I just better off taking unemployment vs PPP? &nbsp;The bank is having issues anyways so I feel like pulling out of PPP. &nbsp;What would you advise?&nbsp;</P>

Modifying Form 1095-A data entry due to change in spouses health care coverage during 2019
</title>

<description>
<P><SPAN>I am doing my daughter's 2019 Taxes. She &amp; her husband are filing a joint return.&nbsp; Since she is a self-employed freelance journalist, she and her husband bought a&nbsp;&nbsp; policy on the Health Insurance Marketplace plan. She had freelance wages all year [reflected on the 1095-A she received]. She also received W-2 wages as an employee of a &nbsp;local business. She received a 1095-C from them indicating that she neither received nor was offered Health Insurance during the entire year. But her husband got a job &amp; started receiving Health Insurance from the new employment in June [He received a 1099-B from them stating that he received the Health Insurance&nbsp; in June thru December, 2019 [Code B on Line 8 of his 1099B]. The way I understand it,&nbsp; ie,&nbsp; the way this works is that if either one of them [my daughter or her spouse] received &nbsp;&nbsp;"Employer-Sponsored Coverage " during the year [He did from June thru December] she could not claim the self-employed health deduction for those months [Jun-Dec]. How do I indicate this? My Business TTAX is not really telling me how to enter this. There is no place to enter her husbands' 1095-B data. Do I delete the 1095-A lines for Jun thru Dec when I enter the data from said form?&nbsp; Any help&nbsp; would be appreciated. </SPAN></P>
