Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Thanks for the prompt response. Once I select "None of these apply to me" on the Uncommon Situations screen, the very next screen I get is that this 1099-NEC is self-employment, asking me to enter business information for Schedule-C.

 

On the uncommon situations select screen, I do see an option that says "This is not money earned as an employee or a self-employed individual, it is from a sporadic activity or hobby (this is not common)" 

 

- Should I select this option instead of "none of these apply to me"?

- And fundamentally, is such a cashless ESOP exercise SE income or not? I've seen some conflicting posts on the community pages elsewhere. 

 

Thanks!
