From: RE-wrenches [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kristopher Schmid Sent: Friday, March 27, 2015 11:33 AM To: RE-wrenches Subject: Re: [RE-wrenches] ITC I just looked over my 1040 and indeed the credit is subtracted BEFORE the self employment tax is added in. At first blush, it appears to be the case. If you have enough 1099 income, the tax credit would apply to taxes paid on that income...i think?
