Deleting my original 1099-MISC and following the above advice, this document now - as before - perpetually "requires review" and remains errantly viewed as "self-employed work" by TurboTax Premier Online. Specifically, now I am to (1) "Check the box at the top of Schedule C to indicate that the taxpayer's name and the business name are the same, to remove this error message," (2) enter an "Accounting Method" onto the "Schedule C, (3) enter "Material Participation" onto the "Schedule C," (4) Answer "Did you make any payments in 2021 that would require you to file Form(s) 1099?" on the "Schedule C," (5) enter a "Zip Code" onto the "Schedule C," (6) enter a "State" into the "Schedule C," (7) respond to "Qualified business income - yes or no. We are missing some important info. Please return to your business and complete that topic," (8) enter an "Address" onto the "Schedule C," (9) reflect that a "Principal Business Code must be entered. Enter a valid 6 digit business activities code between 000001 and 999000, or enter 999999," and (10) enter a "City" onto the "Schedule C." Again, this income is NOT self-employment; rather, it is proceeds from "net investment income." No matter how a 1099-MISC originates, TurboTax automatically labels it as "self-employment income and expenses," necessitating a non-existent Schedule C. No matter how many times I proceed, TurboTax requests me to "review" this entry and, again, cannot save Vanguard's "Payer's TIN."
Additional, alternative advice is requested please. Thank you.
