Self Employment Tax

My client has Schedule C income of $25K but no S/E tax is calculating. Sch 2 Part II Line 4 says "Exempt 4029." This is not correct because the 4029 box isn't checked on Sch C; AND client is not a clergy member in the first place! Is there an update scheduled that will fix this? 

 

Thank you!

Have you looked at the "SE Adj Wks" to see if the box is checked?

Any chance there is a second Schedule C hiding somewhere that has that box checked?

Thanks for the advice -- there was in fact a 2nd Sch C with the box checked. I guess I didn't notice it because it was a loss and wouldn't affect SE tax anyway. 

Problem solved!
