Self Emp Tax

[tm4765]

Why won't different numbers for line 18 always says too large. on the schedule SE  page . I even put 0 through 6787 numbers

[TaxGuyBill]

Schedule SE says that, or are you talking about the deferral of SE tax on Schedule 3?

If you are referring to Schedule SE, does Line 3 show a positive number (a profit from the business)?

[tm4765]

No it shows a loss of -6567

Then leave it BLANK.

Yes I put ) in the correct box and when a run a review the same entry pops up to correct the entry.  This will pop up as a red flag when I file my taxes with the IRS.. I'm I correct on this??

[tm4765]

I did leave it blank and when I run a review it says I must correct this????

"when I file my taxes with the IRS"

A loss means no SE taxes are owed, so there is nothing to defer. But we cannot explain how to do it in TurboTax. You seem to be lost on the internet.
