My husband received a 1099-MISC form for some work he did on a local farm, truck driving.

I've entered all of the information they asked for from the 1099-MISC, but now it's asking me information about the business, as if it's my husband's business and not just place he worked for. I'm very confused.

the 1099-misc should be reported on schedule C rather than line 21.

That is self employment income.

Yes you are the owner of your own self employment business. You are in business for yourself. Use your own info. The people or company that pays you is your customer or client. You need to fill out schedule C for self employment business income. You are considered to have your own business for it. YOU are the business.

To report your self employment income you will fill out schedule C in your personal 1040 tax return and pay SE self employment Tax. You can enter Self Employment Income into Online Deluxe or Premier but if you have any expenses you will have to upgrade to the Self Employed version.
