Our mission
Most self-employed people overpay their taxes — not because they want to, but because they never tracked the deductions they were entitled to. ScheduleC.App exists to fix that. We publish free Schedule C bookkeeping templates for more than 70 business types, each pre-loaded with the ordinary and necessary deductions that map to specific IRS Schedule C line numbers, so organizing a year of expenses takes minutes instead of days.
How our templates are built
Each template categorizes expenses by the actual lines of IRS Schedule C (Form 1040) and calculates net profit automatically. The categories reflect the deductions that are common and accepted within each trade under IRC Section 162. The templates are organizational and educational tools — they help you keep clean records, but they do not replace personalized advice from a qualified tax professional.
Our sponsor: Arc & Ledger Accounting
ScheduleC.App is sponsored by Arc & Ledger Accounting, a firm of IRS Enrolled Agents. Enrolled Agents are federally licensed tax practitioners who have passed a comprehensive IRS examination and are authorized to prepare returns and represent taxpayers before the IRS under U.S. Department of the Treasury Circular 230. Their sponsorship is what lets us keep every template free. If you want a professional to prepare your return, you can send Arc & Ledger your completed template and they handle the rest.
