I have a w-2 job and added income from that but it's not liking what I entered for self-employment. I can't figure out what else it wants.
What do you mean by "received a paycheck in Jan for Dec"?
Only employees receive paychecks.
Did you receive Self-Employment income in January?
I worked through the end of Dec and was paid for that work in January, thus having to claim that income for 2020. That is my self-employment income for Jan. I became a w-2 employee in 2020 and so don't have other self employed income to report. But it keeps cueing me to report more.
Is this the final year you have that self-employment income? If so, be sure to select that you ended the business in 2020 as this may help.
