If you have a W-2 with the checkbox for
"Statutory Employee" in Box 13 marked, be sure that you
have entered that information in your online W-2 data. Then
proceed through the W-2 followup questions until you reach the question Did [Name] have any business-related expenses in 2018?
and answer Yes. (You
will only see this question if the Statutory Employee box is checked.) TurboTax
will link your W-2 to a Schedule C, where you can enter your business-related
deductions.
To
enter the 1099-MISC and create a separate Schedule C, take the following
steps:
- In your Federal
return,
choose the tab for Wages & Income
- Tab through or
scroll down to Other Common Income (you may have to choose Add more income and then See more income to view this
topic) and then Show More
-
Start/Revisit Form 1099-MISC
-
Edit your 1099-MISC if you already entered one or more Add it now and enter the information on the form(s) then Continue.
TurboTax will prompt you for the Schedule C information. If for some reason it does not, then delete the 1099-MISC and start the topic over again.
