Reporting Federal and State withholding on W-2G forms for professional gamblers
Can an input screen be added where federal and state tax withholdings shown on a W-2G can be entered for a professional gambler? A professional gambler cannot use the current W-2G input forms, as the income will flow through to Schedule 1; the income for a professional gambler needs to be reported on Schedule C. Entering the income is not an issue, but there is no way to report the withholding from W-2Gs without using overrides.
There is a question on the Schedule C input form asking if the business is related to professional gambling. I'm not sure why this question is asked, since there doesn't seem to be a recognition of the reporting requirements for a professional gambler.
