Self employed

I need to add spouse self employment income/expenses (first year).  Extension already filed without the information in TurboTax.  When I open TurboTax, I only get the screens that already have information.  I need to get to the screen where you indicate that the spouse was self-employed.  Thank you.

I am considering using Turbo Tax for my 2025 personal return.  I have a question about for 8995-A Schedule B and QBI aggregation support.I have two businesses for the 2025 tax year:A sole proprietorship reported on Schedule CAn S corporation reported on a K-1The businesses meet all of the IRS requirements to be aggregated for QBI purposes. Does Turbo Tax support this function with the online version for this scenario?  If so can the return be e-filed or does it need to be mailed?

Unable to delete 1099-misc form

How can I find out what's wrong with my Schedule E?

I got married in 2025 and am preparing our 2025 federal return, planning to file Married Filing Jointly (MFJ). We live in Florida.My wife earned income, but her workplace says it cannot issue her Form 1099 because she has neither an SSN nor an ITIN. Her marriage-based adjustment of status and employment authorization are still pending.I also recently lost my job, so we are experiencing financial hardship and are concerned about paying any income and self-employment taxes owed.How should we proceed? How can we report her income without a 1099, and how would we enter it in TurboTax? Can she apply for an ITIN using Form W-7 while her work authorization is pending? Would we need to print and mail our joint return with Form W-7? Are there tax-residency rules or elections we should check before filing MFJ? How do we confirm whether her income is subject to self-employment tax? If we cannot pay the full balance, what IRS payment-plan or hardship options are available? How are monthly

How do I know what to charge my tenant for rent or what to charge my clients so I pay the least in taxes?

Hit-run crash occurred Aug. 16, 2026. I must pay a deductible toward cosmetic repairs. Most years I use the standard mileage deduction.

Trying to correct a business deduction.  Calls to Customer Service do not go through.  

I have always been a dependent and have never made any income before. I want to start freelancing, but have no idea where to start and I am deeply overwhelmed.1. If I have never made income before, and have no clue what my income in my first year (or half year, if I start in June?) will be, how do I file quarterly estimates? Do I just assume I won’t make it past the lowest tax bracket and file accordingly?2. I have read that if you hadn’t made $1,000 in taxable income the previous year, you don’t actually need to do quarterly taxes. Is that true in my case? Will I only be filing at the end of the year?3. I have heard that it’s best to have a business bank account to keep things orderly and better avoid IRS scrutiny. This is probably my dumbest question and I apologize, but if everything goes to my business account… when/how do I make personal expenses, outside of business deductible expenses, if all of my income is to be in a business account? Do I just… transfer it to my personal when

so i efiled 1099div form for my recipent and the efile was accepted on the 10th few days ago   For your reference, the Confirmation Number for this filing is [PII removed].but up till now the form havent showed on the recipent wage and income transcript yet   why?

I received a 1099 NEC for settlement in a sexual harassment lawsuit. It was issued as a 1099 NEC not MIsc. Since this is reported as 1099 NEC non-employee comp, can I deduct the attorney fees associated with the case?  They were paid from the amount in Box 1 non-employee compensation. No taxes were withheld and no other information or amounts in any box other than box 1. I had no other 1099/ SE income for that year. I did have w-2 income.  

Can anyone else get to the thread below? Replies posted by User526 | Community When I click on any one of the responses, I get a flash to the thread and then get returned to the home community page.

I am self employed with no employees. I used the 20% of 0.93 x gross income rule to pre-calculate my maximum SEP contribution for 2025 and came out at 40K. However, when I just used TurboTax 2025 to maximize my traditional SEP contribution, it came out with 70K! This has to be an error. Has anyone had the same problem? Has this been reported to Inuit?

As a business, if I pay a mechanic to repair my vehicle with a credit card, do I need to file a 1099 NEC?

My AGI is $8,000 and TT wanted to charge me $274.  Filed on Freetaxusa for free.

I am an IC with a home-based office. If I need to drive to my host office location for training or meetings, is the mileage deductible? A collegue told me that her tax preparer said it was not deductible. 

A depreciation question. In Feb of 2024, my spouse purchased a Mac Studio and laser printer to facilitate her working remotely for her ex-employer. They are both 5 year properties and I've been tracking their depreciation according to MACRS schedule (not that we can deduct depreciation as individuals). In March of 2026, the firm, essentially folded, and she formed an LLC to continue as a free lancer. The computer/printer became the LLC's property. My questions are, do I use their current depreciated value or their fair market value (which is substantially higher, due to the RAM shortage caused by AI)? Second, does the 5 year time line reset to LLC's formation date?
