My wife is an educator and does a little independent contract work each year for the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum each year for less than $2000. We file a 1099-NEC each year without problem. This year, Turbotax insists that we must file an SS-8 form. She doesn't have the information to fill this out.
There are several screens that get us here, regardless of what we choose. It asks about her type of income, whether it's self-employment or income that should have been reported on a W-2. Either choice asks us to fill out the SS-8.
We're stuck. We've never had to fill out this form before. I can see where I reported the NEC on last year's taxes.
