How do i enter in self employment expences ?

Thank you for your question.

 

To enter your self-employment expenses, follow these instructions:

 

1) Click on "Find" on the top right of your screen and type in Self-Employment

2) When asked if you have self-employed income and/or expenses to report, click yes.

3) Input your basic business information (Business Name, Fiscal Period, Business Address, Industry code, etc.)

4) Clarify if your business has partners or earns income from websites and/or web pages

5) Enter your self-employment income (if applicable) either under "Professional fees" or "other income" (on the next page)

6) After those pages, you will get to the expense page; fill out those pages with the applicable expenses.
