What to enter in TurboTax Self Employed?

I sell on Amazon and I am filing my taxes with Turbo Tax Self Employed. What if my Profit and Loss statement shows income was slightly higher than the 1099-K Amazon provided me? Do I enter the actual number I have on my Profit and Loss statement or what is on the 1099-K? ( I only sell on Amazon.) Thanks in advance!

Yes.  You must report all your income from your own records even if it's not included on a 1099Misc or 1099K.

@VolvoGirl Thank you! Should I put the amount of the 1099-K on one line and then put the difference on the next? or just keep them together as a total?

Only the total goes to schedule C line 1.  You can enter the total on the Cash line.

Could you please clarify? I'm using TurboTax Self Employed. Thank you so much for your help!
