Do you have a TurboTax Online account?

We'll help you get started or pick up where you left off.

What do you put as your occupation if you were an Assistance Manager for a large retail store for 6 months of the year then became an independent contractor?

I have a W2 for 6 Months out of the year and a 1099 for the last 6 months, what "occupation or Job Title" would you put in?

The IRS does not use "occupation" for anything that will affect your tax due or refund, so it really does not make a difference. Enter whichever occupation you want to enter.
