By the term "reporting" does that mean you are entering a 1099-NEC for income you received in Texas?

TX does not have a state income tax.  You don't need to mention TX.  Are Boxes 5,6, and 7 blank?

There is an amount in Box 7, the same as the total amount of the 1099 NEC since all of the money was earned/paid in Texas

I see now that on another 1099 NEC there is nothing in boxes 5, 6, and 7.

I will treat the first 1099 NEC as if it was the same.

 

Thank you for your quick reply!!

In 1099 NEC form, I have PAYER’S TIN but in turbotax is asks about "Employer ID Number (EIN)". are they the same thing?

 

My second question is the turbo tax also asks about the adress for the bussines, and in my 1099 NEC form, I have "PAYER’S name, street address, city or town, state or province, country, ZIP
or foreign postal code, and telephone no." shoudl i adress of this payer's name rather than my home adress?

A Payer's TIN is often an EIN used interchangeably.  TIN is just generic "Taxpayer Identification Number."  You can use the Payer's TIN in an EIN field.

 

As for the second question, I'm sorry but I don't know the context of the screen you are on. what exactly it asks for, and what the preceding screen was.  When I enter a test 1099-NEC in Online TurboTax I don't even get asked anything at all about an address--I only get asked about the Payer name and EIN, and the boxes on the 1099-NEC.  I don't know if you are using Online TurboTax or desktop TurboTax, but if you're using desktop TurboTax, I don't know what you encounter while entering a 1099-NEC.

 

However, are you sure you are entering the 1099-NEC in the correct place?   Hopefully you are not trying to enter it in the W-2 section by mistake.

I have "Nonemployee compensation" box in my form 1099-NEC that is my income from this company. I need to enter it somewhere in turbotax but I dont know where (It does not ask). I also want to add that the 2 items in the attached image do not apply to me
