No, not if you mean that you answered one of the interview questions that you were self-employed. As long as you enter your information and his correctly, you should have no issues. If you accidentally created a Schedule C Business for yourself, and you get an error message about it, you can delete that business from your return.

To delete a form:

Go to My Account at the top of your screen. From the drop-down, choose Tools.
In the Tool Center, choose Delete A Form (see screenshot).
In Review Form List, find the Schedule C with your name on it, and choose Delete.
On the screen Delete Selected Form, select Delete. After the screen Form Successfully Deleted, go back to the forms list, and verify that the form has been deleted.

Come back here if you later have any issues with this situation, or post another question in the forum.
