Tax Year Prior to 2020: Audit estimater

[smettlen1]

In past years when I finished my return, the audit estimator would give me a range of risk and list specific factors that contributed to that risk like having a Schedule C.  The system let me change my return and the audit estimator would recalculate.  This doesn't appear to recalculate this year.  Is that true?

It should recalculate if your risk has changed.  If it's not changing, they perhaps save your return, and reopen it.  Also, as long as your expenses are qualified "ordinary and necessary" business expenses, and you have receipts, you should be fine! 

The Audit Meter is exclusively available in TurboTax Deluxe, Premier, and Home & Business Desktop versions and can be accessed on the Review tab (under Audit Protection).  Please see this link for more details.
