I just received a 1099misc that is incorrect.
i made $2,000 and they said i made $20,000 on the non-employee compensation field!
I have contacted the bookkeeping firm who sent it to me and asked them to amend the 1099misc form and send me a corrected form which they are doing --- but they have already sent the incorrect form to the IRS.
How do i proceed with adding this in turbo tax?
And since i am not e-filing, do i need to send an additional letter from the bookkeeping firm stating that they made an error, destroyed the wrong form and re-issued a new one?
Thanks for any advice anyone can provide!

When the accounting firm sends you the corrected form 1099-Misc, they are required to send a corrected copy to the IRS as well. It is their responsibility to notify the IRS. It definitely would not hurt to include such a letter with your return, but it is not necessary since this really does happen ALL the time.
When you get the corrected 1099-Misc, you will enter it into TurboTax normally. There is no box to check for a corrected 1099-MISC in the program. You will simply file with the most updated form.
