Question

I worked in home health just for a family. How do I file that? They did not take taxes out nor send out any kind of form except a list of our payments.

You would need to file as self-employed using a Schedule C for reporting your income.

 

Here are instructions on how to enter your income and any expenses that you had at your job, if any:

 

 

To report your income, you would:

  • Go to Business Income and Expenses, click Start
  • Follow the prompts and enter information about your work
  • You do not need or have an EIN
  • You can use business code 999999
  • You use the cash accounting method
  • You have no employees 
  • You did not make any 1099 payments
  1. Enter Business Income in General Income
  2. Enter Amount on next screen

You can deduct any expenses that you had such as supplies or mileage

 

You will be paying self-employment taxes on this income. TurboTax will calculate the amount that is owed. There is an option this year to defer an amount of the SE taxes until next year.
