For your situation, your best bet (and most accurate and tax-friendly to you as well - most importantly) is to delete the imported information and enter manually into your Schedule C. This would be the same as if you had a company that you were using, say, Quickbooks for, as the end result of Quickbooks work done on your part would be the information you would transfer/enter into the tax prep software for your return. Since the 1099 is a B, and not an NEC or MISC, that is why TurboTax is automatically directing it to the Schedule D, where as usually you would input yourself and then select where the 1099 belongs. It is a little more work, but again for your situation it is the most effective way to get the accuracy of taxation - and the added benefits you are looking to gain (and pains that you're also looking to avoid).
