The Schedule C information is import to your state tax return through your federal tax return entries.  In order to change your Schedule C, you would need to edit your federal tax return.  Any changes made to the Schedule C on your federal return will update on your state return.  To edit your Schedule C in TurboTax, follow these steps:

 

  1. Sign in to TurboTax
  2. Click The arrow next to Income & Expenses
  3. Click Review/Edit
  4. Click the Edit Icon next to Self-Employment Income and Expenses
  5. Make the changes you need to your Schedule C

TurboTax transfers data from your federal return to your state return. If you need to make any changes, they would need to be made on the federal Schedule C.

 

Once you're done, select the State Taxes tab and review the state section. Pay close attention to the info, especially if you made changes to your federal return. There might be new sections that need to be completed.  

 

Sometimes changes made to your federal return won't transfer if you override info on your state return. If this happens, delete your state return and start over.


Where do I enter Schedule C?

I am having same issue. Why is schedule c form grayed out and you can't edit it? When I go through questions,  the one I need does not come up for me to change.

Which question do you need?  Which version of TurboTax are you using?

The sole proprietor version. In sceduchle c, lines 44 and 45, the sale price and expense of sale for my vehicle.  I did not dispose nor sell it. I messed up and first put I did and entered zeroes there. I went back and unchecked that I did and took out date but those zeroes are still on those lines and I can't get to that to remove them. This is preventing me to efile.

Online or desktop?

 

You can delete the vehicle and the vehicle worksheet and then re-enter it.  If you are using the online version, you should clear your cache and cookies after you delete the vehicle. 

If you are using the desktop version, then you can switch to forms mode and delete the vehicle worksheet.  If you are using the online version follow the instructions below to delete the worksheet. 

 

 

  1. From the left rail menu in TurboTax Online, select Tax Tools (You may have to scroll down on the left rail menu.)
  2. On the drop-down select Tools
  3. On the Pop-Up menu titled “Tools Center,” select Delete a Form 
  4. This will show all of the forms in your return
  5. Scroll down to the form you want to delete
  6. Select the Form
  7. Click on Delete. 

Always use extreme caution when deleting information from your tax return.  There could be unintended consequences.

Online version. I was afraid of that, that's is what I was told by chatting. I was hoping there was another way. The vehicle was entered back in 2008 and I am afraid to delete because I don't remember what questions will be asked to reenter. Oh well, if that is my only option. I will. Thanks.

Prior to deleting it you can print your return.  This will allow you to still have the worksheet.  Just remember to print all forms and worksheets or you can just print that worksheet, but make sure the worksheets are selected, not just the forms for filing.
