Get your taxes done using TurboTax

No, a 1099-MISC Box 3 is treated as other income.   This would not be considered as self-employment income.   There is a new form for reporting non-employee income which is a 1099-NEC.  A 1099-NEC would result in self-employment income.

 

To enter the 1099-MISC go to:

  1. Open TurboTax and select the Federal section.
  2. Go to Income and Expenses and Scroll down to Other Common Income
  3. Click on Form1099-MISC.
  4. Click on Start 
  5. Go through the questions and enter the 1099-MISC
  6. This will show on Line 8 of the 1040.
