Good god yes... this is one hell of a mess in TurboTax. I've already spent 4 hours trying to figure out why my wife''s 1099-NEC self employment income isn't earned income... much less getting it fixed.
This is a long and old discussion with several different problems. What exactly is your issue? If your spouse is self-employed, it will work best if you create the job, then enter the 1099 as job income. In the past, it was possible to enter the 1099 first, which would create the job (schedule C) but that doesn't work as well this year.
