The 1099-misc will not show up as regular income in your Personal Income Summary , it will show up as self employed or sole proprietor income.There you should see the total income.In the past, the 1099-MISC would show in both the Personal Income Summary and the Business Income summary, and it gave the appearance that the income was double-reported. If you can see your 1099-MISC in your business income, it is reported correctly.
