You enter your total wage expense. If you pay an employee $20,000 per year...then you enter $20,000 on Line 26. Payroll taxes that you paid on that $20,000 would go on Line 23.

I have the same question - Does Turbo Tax know to pull out the tax portion that's otherwise reported twice?
Ok ... you need to separate the payroll tax returns from the income tax returns ... the total wages you paid is what you report and ONLY the employer's portion of the FICA taxes & other payroll taxes liKe FUTA/SUTA and expenses are deducted from the business return. What was withheld from the employee's wages and sent in for fed/state/FICA taxes are immaterial for the business return because they are not deducted again.
What if I paid my employees as a general contractors. Meaning I gave them a 1099.
Do they still go online 26 or “can” they go online 26 (in lieu of line 11.) They are still my employees and I’m using this to file for my PPP -so please say yes 🙂
Paid them as a general contractors, meaning they're not your employees you don't pay taxes for them they're independent contractors and if you report them has your employees in your PPP that's wrong! and your loan can get default for that.
Report your amounts paid to contractors as "Contract Labor" under "Business Expenses".
As an LLC with only one member( self) do I report the wage I received or assigned. No wage was paid do to a loss'
If filing on Schedule C, you would not put anything on line 26, unless you had an employee(s) that you treated as a W-2 Employee. If you are talking about money you "paid" yourself, that does not go on your tax return. You have your revenue, and your expenses, and what's left is your taxable income, and it's yours to do with as you please. Of if you have a loss, it means you spent more on your business than you made.
