My husband is an independent contractor. In previous years, he would receive a 1099-MISC with box 7 filled out for non-employee compensation. This year he received a 1099-MISC with box 11 filled out. I can't seem to get the software to allow me to fill out this box. I tried to do a little research. Was he supposed to get a 1099-NEC instead?
I tried to bring this up to the person who supplied him with the 1099-MISC and he's under the impression that what he supplied to us was in fact correct and we should just use any box available to report the income. I don't think that's right.
How can I proceed to do our taxes if I can't get the right forms?
