Get your taxes done using TurboTax

The questions in TurboTax regarding Form 1099-MISC are designed to insure the income on it is properly handled on your tax return. You will need to indicate that the income is not associated with your main job, is not recuring year to year and the activity was not engaged in to earn a profit in order for the income to not be treated as self-employment income. If any of those three conditions are not met, then it is likely the IRS will treat the income as self-employment income. Also, those questions will not appear on your tax return, they are just asked to help determine the correct way to report the income on your tax return.
