Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I don't know that this answer is correct. Postdoctoral fellows are not students. They commonly receive 1099-MISC forms from their institutions, but should NOT be subjected to FICA or self-employment tax (there is conflicting case ruling on these situations, but the general consensus is that postdocs shouldn't pay self-employment tax). I am also confused about how to properly answer my turbotax questions as I am in a similar situation. I had federal taxes deducted from my wages and have a 1099-MISC. Help from any others would be appreciated.
