Where do I enter my farm income and losses on OLT?

To report your farm income and losses using Online Taxes (OLT) software, follow these steps:

  • Log in to your OLT account and navigate to your tax return.
  • Go to the Federal menu, then select the Income tab.
  • Click on Show More next to "Farm Income or Losses."
  • Select Start next to "Farm Income or Losses - Schedule F."

This will open the Schedule F form where you can enter your farm-related income, expenses, and other financial details. Ensure you have gathered all necessary documents such as sales receipts, expense records, and depreciation schedules before starting.

If you received a 1099-MISC form related to your farm, you should enter that income on Schedule F as part of your farm income reporting. The software will guide you through entering the details correctly.
