Deductions & credits

I did put it in under this one (other self employed income), but TurboTax won't let me file without showing me the NEC and the line to fill in. Not sure if that is because I had clicked on it at first before adding any income to check what it is (but I didn't enter anything!), or if it is because I made more than 600 from the same company? Or if it is a glitch? Thanks for your answer!


 

See if it started a Form 1099-NEC Worksheet that you don't need, and delete it.  Then before filing, review everything to be sure your reported income is still there, etc.  Here's how:

 

  • With your return open, go to the left column TAX TOOLS, then TOOLS.
  • In the Tools window choose "Delete a Form"
  • In the forms list look for a Form 1099-NEC Worksheet for that particular Payer.  Or it could say "Form 1099-NEC Worksheet (Untitled)."
  • Delete it if it's not needed.

NOTE:  If you have multiple Form 1099-NEC Worksheets (i.e., if you received actual 1099-NEC payments from other Payers), be sure you delete the right one.

 

Then review your return before filing to be sure everything is still being reported correctly.

And go through the Review tab and run the error check/smart check again to be sure there are no errors.
