My employer sent an incorrect 1099-NEC. I know the amount can I change it?

You should not change it; enter as it is so it matches what the IRS received.   If your employer gave you income not on your w-2, you can indicate that when you enter the 1099-NEC.   TurboTax will generate Form 8919.   All of your income received from that employer should be on your w-2 - all of it; none should be on a Form 1099-nec - you can't be an employee and a contractor to the same company.

Hi Dawn C,

 

Thanks for responding. I should have clarified my question better. I received a 1099-NEC which is incorrect but I know the correct amount. I am not an employee for this organization so I receive a 1099-NEC and not a W-2.

You will need to contact the company that issued the form and request that they correct the amount.
