⚠️ Before You Begin

You may see this reject when a Schedule C has no income or activity. The IRS requires at least one of the listed Schedule C lines to contain a non-zero value.

🛠️ What to Do

Step 1: Discard Schedule C forms with 0 income or activity

Please discard any Sch Cs that have 0 income or activity and resubmit.

✅ Success!

After removing the Schedule C(s) with 0 income or activity, resubmit so the remaining Schedule C includes a non-zero value on at least one of the required lines.
