No. You do not need to fill out a Schedule C if you have a household employee. However, you do need to fill out Schedule H and report any tax payments you made.

Schedule H will calculate the Household Employment Taxes you owe, but you also need to enter the tax payments you paid under "estimated taxes."

Prepare Schedule H

To prepare a Schedule H in TurboTax, please follow these steps:

Click on Federal Taxes > Other Tax Situations. [In TT Self-Employed: Personal > Personal Income > I’ll choose what I work on > Other Tax Situations.]
Scroll down to the Additional Tax Payments section and click on the Start/Revisit box next to Nanny and Household Employee Tax.
Continue through the screens, entering the required information.

Enter state/local tax payments

Federal withholding is reported in the process of preparing Schedule H. To report any state/local tax payments you made, please follow these steps:

Click on Federal Taxes > Deductions & Credits. [In TT Self-Employed: Personal > Deductions & Credits]
In the Estimates and Other Taxes Paid section, click on the Start/Update box next to Estimates.
On the next screen, click on the Start/Revisit box next to State [or local] estimated taxes for 2016.
Enter your payment(s) on the next screen, How much did you pay in State [or local] estimated taxes?
