Wages Paid

[vman2]

On turbotax Home & Business, exactly where do you enter wages paid to an employee. I cannot find it. Can you tell me the section and where in that section?

If Employee Expenses do not show up in the list of business expenses, you need to go back to the Business Profile section and click Edit by Has Employees and change it to 'Yes'.

1. Click on the Business tab- then Continue.
2. Choose Explore on my own or I'll choose what to work on . 
3. Business Income and Expenses - Click the Start or Update button.
4. You should see the Business Summary page that lists your businesses, (right below the list you can Add Another Business).
5. Click EDIT by your business name and the next screen should be a list of topics.
6. Click Start or Update by Business Profile.
7. Scroll down to Has Employees and Edit. 
8. Change to Yes and Continue.
9. Click on the Business tab- then Continue.
10. Continue.
11. Choose I'll choose what to work on.
12. On the Let’s gather your business info screen, select Update next to Profit or Loss from Business.  
13. On the Here’s the business info we have so far screen, select Edit next to your business. 
14. On the Your XXX Business screen, scroll down to Business Expenses and select Visit all.
15. Continue and on the Let’s write off some business expenses screen, scroll down to Employee Expenses.
16. Continue with the onscreen interview until complete.
