Refund for overpayment of Self assessment Tax

It’s nice to see you here in the Community @Sonia11_2. I can help you track the refunds in QuickBooks Self-Employed.

I recommend setting them as personal expenses, as this is the best way to record them. Since refund transactions don’t fall under the Schedule C category, you must exclude them.

Here’s how to record personal expenses:

1. On the left navigation bar, click Transactions.
2. Tick "Add transaction."
3. Input the transaction in the box and the amount.
4. Select Personal from the Select a category drop-down menu.
5. Once done, click Save.

Follow these steps on how to exclude transactions:

1. For the menu, choose Transactions.
2. Look for the transaction, and click the arrow next to it to view details.
3.  Place a checkmark in the box Exclude this transaction (this is for duplicates, reimbursements, customer refunds, and returned purchases).
4. Click Save.
