Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You probably also received a 1099-Misc with an amount in Box 7; this is what is generating the Self-Employment income, not the W-2.

In the follow-up questions after entering your 1099-Misc, choose 'this work is not like my main job' and then 'no intent to earn money' (screenshots).

This will put the income under 'Other Income' instead of Self-Employment Income.
