What are the Steps to Follow in Entering the Statutory Employee Income in ProWeb? 

Income that has been reported on Form W-2 and labelled as Statutory Employee in Box 13 has to be entered in the following places in the Taxx Savage Program: 

  • Enter Form W-2 in its entry menu. Check “Statutory Employee” Box 13; Income in Box 1 won’t flow into the Income Menu 
  • Enter W-2 Box 1 on Schedule C, under the Profits or Loss From Business section. 

How to create a Schedule C for statutory income

  • Go to the Federal Section of the Tax Return Summary
  • Proceed to the Income section 
  • From there go to Profit or Loss from Business and complete the information as required then key in the Principal Business Activity Code 
  • Schedule C Data Entry Menu should be filled with the required information: name(if applicable)  and address of the business and an EIN (if the employee has one). The employee’s SSN is not to be entered in this field. 
  • Select Income once done with the Schedule C Edit Menu 
  • In the Income Reported on Form W-2 as Statutory Employee section, enter the W-2 Box 1 amount. 
  • Then select Continue 
  • Select General expenses from Schedule C Menu in case the employee has business expenses that are associated with these earnings. 

Statutory Income Reported on Schedule C

Deduction of the statutory employee’s business or trade costs from the income displayed on Form W-2 can be made by the said employee. A statutory employee’s earnings are reported as income on line 1 of Schedule C instead of on Form 1040 Line 1 as wages, salaries, tips, etc. The business of a statutory employee  is not eligible for the 2% reduction of their gross income that has been adjusted. 

  • File separate Schedule C for every income. The self-employment income and statutory employee income should Never be combined. 
  • Never enter net statutory income on Schedule SE. Medicare Tax as well as Social Security are to be reported on Form W-2
