Entering income if filing for SS8

Hi there- I’m using TurboTax Free File! For one job this year I was incorrectly given a 1099MISC. I’ve already filed an SS8 (still waiting for a determination) and gone through the steps of getting a form 8919 added to my return for this job - which seems like it greatly reduced the taxes I have to pay. 

 

However - do I need to add that income into the the section “Business Income and Expenses (Sc-C)”? If I do - - it greatly increases the taxes that TurboTax says I owe, even though it already reduced that amount when I entered into the initial “Income from 1099 MISC” section?

 

I don’t know what I would report this as business income when I am not determined as a business, and as a result pay thousands more in taxes!
