When entering Performing Arts self-employment, TT says that "Because you're a clergy member..." But I'm not clergy and I have no idea where TT got that impression (I certainly didn't check any boxes saying I am). I can't get past that question. How do I tell TT that I'm not clergy?

Are you using job code 813000? That code triggers the clergy housing question on a schedule C. That code is also used for various civic and grantmaking jobs that are not clergy. If that's the kind of work you are doing, you can ignore the clergy questions. Or, you may be using the wrong job code.

Thanks for the info, but I never entered any code. However, I just continued through those questions without answering and was able to get to the summary screen where I could update the job code (it defaulted to 999999). The questions certainly don't sound like they're skipable; maybe something is up with the UI. Thanks!
