I never owned a business so why do I have to fill out a schedule c form

Delete the Schedule C

Click on Tax Tools on the left side of the online program screen

Click on Tools

Click on Delete a form

If you aren't self-employed or own a business, then a Schedule C is not required.

If TurboTax asks you for a Schedule C, this means that a Schedule C was inadvertently started or was carried over from previous years.

Delete this Schedule C.

1. In TurboTax, open your return
2. In the left-hand column, locate Tax Tools, click on the drop-down arrow then click on Tools
3. On the Tools Center  page, click on Delete a form 
4. A list of forms will appear. Locate the Schedule C (name of entity) and click Delete next to it.
5. On the next screen, click Delete Form
6. Also delete any worksheets associated with it.
