Get your taxes done using TurboTax

The IRS brought back Form 1099-NEC to be used only for Self-Employed Taxpayers. 

 

You'll have to get someone to correct that form to a 1099-MISC, paper-file, or enter it as a 1099-MISC into the program. The IRS may question that.

 

There is no way to proceed with a 109--NEC without claiming Self-Employment in TurboTax. 

 

"Beginning in the 2020 tax year, Form 1099-NEC is the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) form used by businesses to report payments made to independent contractors, freelancers, sole proprietors, and self-employed individuals."
