I cannot find where to enter business use of home (8829). I've entered my schedule C expenses, but I am not finding the "business use of home" prompt that I've seen referenced in another answer. Searching 8829 in the search box includes no such "jump to form..." that other forms have. I have 1099 income (not w-2).
Please follow these steps:
what version of Turbotax? Perhaps your version does not support the form
If you are using TurboTax Online, go to your Schedule C section and click 'Add expenses for this work'. Then, expand the Less Common expenses section and look for Home Office. Be aware that there may be an option at the bottom of the page to move to additional pages of Less Common expenses. You may need to scroll through those additional pages to find Home Office.
If you are using a CD/downloaded version of TurboTax, there should be a selection shown for Home Office Expense under the business expenses portion of the Schedule C input screens.
If you still cannot find it, please do share what version of TurboTax you are using so that someone can address that version specifically.
Thank you uor trying to answer my question.
When I enter "Schedule C" in the search box, there is no "jump to"
When I follow the online instructions and get myself to where I already entered Schedule C income and expenses, and then selected Uncommon Situations, there is no option for home office; there is no "next page".
I am using the online version of Turbo Tax, Premium.
Please follow these steps:
Thank you; that did it. Very much appreciate the step-by-step instructions.
Note to TurboTax company: make it easier to find this from inside Turbotax Search.
Where in turbotax can I find the section for Business Use of home ? not a worksheet but a regular entry place
You enter the business use of home with what it supports. If you have rentals, look in Sch E. If you have a business, it is in Sch C and so on. What do you operate to have a home office and we can guide you. If sch C, Where do I enter the home office deduction for my business?
