Get your taxes done using TurboTax

@lj1130

That's helpful.  Thanks for the info update.

 

The IRS default position is that IRS Form 1099-NEC box 1 income is self-employment income and should be reported on IRS 1040 Schedule C Profit and Loss From Business

 

For 2020, the IRS revived Form 1099-NEC to report this specific income rather than use IRS Form 1099-MISC box 7.

 

If the income is reported on Schedule C, there may be some deductible expenses to reduce the tax burden.  See this TurboTax Help.

 

Hope this helps.
