Where do I enter my employess pay

To report W-2's and 1099-MISC forms, make sure on the Let's confirm your business info section, you checked that you had employees. See the screenshot below.

  • Type sch c in the search bar and click search.
  • Click on Jump to sch c.
  • On the Your XXX Business, click on Business Profile.
  • Scroll down to Has Employees and Edit.
  • Click Continue.
  • Back at the Your XXX Business, scroll down and click on Business Expenses, Other Common Business Expenses.
  • At the Let's write off some business expenses screen, scroll down to:

1.    enter 1099-MISC under Contract Labor

2.    enter W-2's under Employee Expenses

3.    enter Payroll taxes under Taxes and Licenses

I am trying to put the payroll report in the correct line (line 26).  However, in the TurboTax section under tax, when i input in the section as instructed, the payroll appear in the tax line.. not in the payroll line.  Please help.

 

Thank you.

Enter your payroll in Employee Expenses, not Taxes and Licenses. If  "Has Employees" is Yes then you will see Employee Expenses.

 

See awesome Tax Expert Alumni @IreneS's answer: Where do I put employee wages that I paid out on schedule c line 26.
