Yes, you can use the Home & Business for your personal tax return.  

 

What did you receive your 1099-MISC for?  Up until 2020, non-employee compensation was reported on a 1099-MISC.  Beginning in 2020, contractors or self-employed are issued a 1099-NEC (new form).  

 

Once you enter your 1099-MISC into the program, you'll be asked a series of questions about the nature of the income reported on this form.  It may be considered business income.

To skip the Business section just click on Personal at the top.
