Additional information on the Schedule SE

ProConnect Tax Online won't generate the Schedule SE for any Schedule C that's linked to a W-2. According to the Schedule C instructions, if you receive a statutory employee W-2 and there's additional Schedule C income, you must file two separate Schedule Cs—one to show the W-2 with related expenses, and another to report the self-employed income and expenses. See the IRS Instructions for Schedule C for additional information.
