My business is online, I do not own a vehicle and do not need to.Tax filing seems to have a mandatory step with a pre vehicle configured. How can I remove it?

Thanks for checking out the Community space, thomas-seillan-g. I'm here to ensure that you can file taxes smoothly.

 

Currently, there isn't a way to bypass this process. QuickBooks Self-Employed requires you to enter vehicle information to complete your tax return. 

 

Since you don't use or own one, you'll want to enter sample or dummy details. This won't affect your estimated taxes since there are no vehicle-related expenses categorized and trips entered in the program. Here's how:

 

  1. Click the Profile icon, then choose Vehicle info.
  2. Pick a tax year, then add the name and year of the vehicle.
  3. Set the cost and estimated business miles to zero.
  4. Select an ownership status, then fill out the other necessary fields.
  5. When you're done, hit Save.

 

 

Additionally,  I recommend reading our QuickBooks Self-Employed Annual Tax Guide for self-employed individuals, freelancers, and independent contractors to help you prepare for the tax season.
