Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You should not have to enter YOUR social security number on any form, because TurboTax already knows it.   On a 1099 form, you are asked to enter the Payer's EIN or SSN number.   TheRE is a box where you can choose the format on the entry screen.   You have to choose whether the payer's ID is a:

 

SSN -    XXX-XX-XXXX

EIN -      XX-XXXXXXX
