Why did my 1099 misc I file each year for royalties not populate in this years forms?

If you do not see your information from prior years, you might be in a different TurboTax account. You can check to see if you have multiple accounts by following the steps in this help article: How many Intuit accounts do I have with TurboTax?

For assistance with importing your 1099 please see this TurboTax Help Article: How do I import my 1099?

It was the same for me too.
