Hi There,
I have a 1099-MISC income. I was hired to tutor students remotely and earned $1,200 for the year from my residence in California. On my California income state tax the $1,200 is being shown as Federal Income and State income and being added together to total $2,400. It is only $1,200. On the State Form CA 540NR, Section B Additional Income, Line 10 it is adding the $1,200 twice and totalling to $2,400. This should only be $1,200. This is causing me to pay twice as much in taxes.
Also, why is Turbo Tax causing me to record this 1099-MISC income as a self employed business? I was hired as a tutor. I need to pay taxes on the income, but the income was paid by an employer who hired me.
Thanks,
Mark
