Get your taxes done using TurboTax

When entering Form 1099-NEC in your Self-employed income & expenses section, it will associate to you correctly. If you entered it elsewhere, it should be deleted.

 

To do this in TurboTax, follow these steps:

First, delete Form 1099-NEC that is incorrectly linking to the non-existent spouse.

  • From the left menu, select Tax Tools.
  • Select Tools.
  • Scroll to Delete a Form.
  • Scroll to Form 1099-NEC and select Delete and Delete Selected Form and Continue.

Next, return to your Schedule C by typing in schedule c in the search. Then, click the Jump to link.

 

Enter Form 1099-NEC under Common Income and continue. This should correct the issue. Run the Review again.

Does a 1099-NEC or 1099-MISC mean I'm self-employed?
