Yes, it seems very odd. From everything I've seen (and I do not dispute this), if you have an amount in box 1 of a 1099-NEC, that needs to be reported as Self Employment income. Yet when entering it in exactly that way, TT Deluxe by default puts it into "Other Income". This is a bit troubling. I have been using TT Deluxe for many years now, and I have come to expect TT to put my income amounts into the correct categories, especially when it comes to extremely common things like simple 1099 income. But in this case, after having entered it in all correctly (there's not much to get wrong there), TT puts it in the wrong place. I'd love to hear if Intuit has an explanation for this.
