I'm self-employed and paid a subcontractor. I've scoured the self-employment section. Does anyone know where to input this in TurboTax?

Im having this exaxt same problem. in previous years it was a little hard to find but it was there. now the option of inventory and subcontrcts has dissapeared.

In TurboTax Online Self-Employed, like previous years, to get the section for inventory and subcontracts, you have to make sure you select the proper type of business. This option is under the type "Business" (see screenshot).

 

Then, you complete the business profile and will have a page with the question "Did you sell products that you bought or manufactured?" When you click on Yes, it will open the list of inventory- and under there you will find "Cost of subcontracts hired".

 

Thank you for choosing TurboTax.
