If your 1099-MISC is from your self-employment business, then, yes, you can enter it in that section.
Steps to do this:
- From within your federal return, select the "Income & Expenses" tab at the top of the screen.
- Then scroll down to your self-employment income and expenses and select to ADD/EDIT.
- You will want to continue through screens to get to the screen where it says you can add income (you may have to go through a few general business set up screens if you have not set these up already).
- You will want to select the first line where it states "1099-MISC." See a sample screenshot below.
