Does Tax Liability NOT go down when I entered mileage for my vehicle. I am a W2 \"Statutory\" Employee, however, I didn't have a Schedule \"C\" like there was last year?

For business mile deductions for W2 Statutory deductions.

Statutory Employees are paid on Form 1099-NEC, not a W-2.

If you received a W-2, you are considered an employee, not Self-Employed. 

 

Did you switch sponsors? (Broker or something else?) 

Did they use the wrong form?

Statutory employees receive a W-2 from their employer, who checks off Box 13. They do not receive Form 1099-as this document is sent to independent contractors.  If Box 13 is not checked you are not a statutory employee and no deduction is allowed for your job related expenses.

 

 

if box 13 is checked, you must link the W-2 to schedule C.  It is on schedule c that you take your deduction for vehicle and other business expenses. You do not use form 2106
