Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You do not need to have a FEIN to report self-employment income; use the General Income tab under Business Income and Expenses to report income that is not reported on Form W-2 0r 1099-NEC. If you have tried to report under the 1099-NEC or 1099-MISC tabs, delete those entries.

 

 Payments from a non-U.S. company without a U.S. FEIN,  would not have been reported on a Form W-2 or 1099-NEC and should not have had U.S. tax withheld (no Payer EIN, no ability to report income to IRS or withhold tax). Treat it as income by cash or check and report under General Income tab.
