If you're using TurboTax Online, there isn't a Quick Zoom. To find and enter the business activity code in TurboTax Self-employed Online:

  1.  Log-on to your TurboTax.
  2. Select Pick up where you left off.
  3. On the left side menu, select Federal then Wages & Income.
  4. On the Your income and expenses screen, scroll down to Self-employment income and expenses and Review.
  5. On the Your XXX info screen, scroll down to Tax details and under Business code, select Edit.
  6. On the Let's confirm your business code screen, click on the blue Look up my business code and Continue.

Your business code is a six-digit number that represents the kind of work you do. Different kinds of work have different business codes.

 

For TurboTax CD/Download, you can go to Forms Mode to enter the business code. To switch to Forms Mode, open your return and select the Forms icon in the top-right corner of the screen (or choose Forms from the View menu at top).

 

The 1040 Worksheet will display, and all the forms in your return will be listed. Simply select a form to open it.

 

To switch back to the interview, select the Step-by-Step icon in the top-right corner, or choose it from the View menu.

Tips

  • In Step-by-Step mode, you can view the underlying tax form by selecting Show Relevant Form near the bottom of your screen. Not all screens will have this, only those where the input relates directly to a tax form
  • It's OK to switch to Forms Mode if you want to look at a form or two, but constantly toggling back and forth between Forms Mode and Step-by-Step has been known to cause problems and data
