To clarify, why were you issued a 1099-MISC?
Work is usually done by either an employee (W-2) or a contractor (1099)
When a person is an employee, the employer takes care of FICA (Social Security Tax)
When a person is a contractor, they are responsible for the FICA (Self-Employment Tax)
Usually when a person receives a 1099, they are self-employed and need to file Schedule C.
