I cannot enter 1099s for more than one schedule c business

I have used Turbo Tax with multiple Schedule C Businesses for years.  1099 input is BROKEN on my MAC desktop version.  

 

I cannot enter 1099-NECs on more than one Schedule C. For example, I input 1099s for Business A. I open Business B to add 1099s and it forces me to open the 1099 previously entered on  Business A and it reassigns that 1099 to Business B.

 

Also, when I open a business,  I do not get a list of the 1099s to work on, I merely get a list of numbers and have to guess which one matches the 1099 I am trying to work on.  

 

I can also usually say if a 1099 belongs to myself or my spouse. This isn't an option this year either.

 

I have tried deleting all prior year 1099s and entering them from scratch.  Still the same problems.

We appreciate you reporting this to us. Currently, there is a known issue where the spouse is not connected with the form should this be applicable to your situation. This link will allow you to add yourself to a list so that you can be notified when it is ready for use.

If you choose, you have the option of deleting the form and entering the income without the document. The entry is a convenience and not required by the IRS, you should keep the document with your tax files.

 

When you are signed into your TurboTax account follow the steps below.

  1. Search (upper right) for Schedule C > Press Enter > Select the Jump to... link > Review
  2. Select Business Income > Delete this form using the trash can beside the entry
  3. Enter this as a cash payment of business income by selecting Other self-employed income, includes 1099-K, cash, and checks

Will this issue be repaired this tax season or do I need to switch to a different tax software?
