I keep getting "Form 2106 (Teacher) -- Form 2106 Adjustments Wks: Line 6-1 must be entered." and I can't get rid of it in order to move forward with filing.

To eliminate this, go to:

  1. Tax tools
  2. Tools
  3. Delete a form
  4. Delete form 2106 and 2106 worksheet.  These are job related expenses for W2 employees.
  5. If you are a self-employed realtor, you would enter your income and expenses where you enter self-employed income.
  • Go to Federal > Income & Expenses
  • Scroll down to See all income. In the Self-employment section, click Start next to Income & Expenses
  • Answer Yes to Did you have any self-employment income or expenses?
  • Continue through the interview to enter your business information.
  • When you get to the Let's Review Your Work Info screen, make sure everything is correct and then click Looks Good
  • On the Let's get income for work screen, select the type of income you want to enter and click Continue.
  • Proceed through the rest of the interview to enter your income
