You are not an employee if you are getting a 1099NEC. You are an independent contractor and you have a client (s). You are considered to be self-employed, so you will pay self-employment tax for Social Security and Medicare, and ordinary income tax (depending on how much you earn).
If you are a sole proprietor--which is what it sounds like, that is a disregarded entity when you prepare your tax return.
If you have self-employment income for which you will pay self-employment tax for Social Security and Medicare, you will need to use online Premium software or any version of the CD/download so that you can prepare a Schedule C for your business expenses.
