Business & farm

I have to assume that you started off at the wrong place.

 

In the second step that Amy gave you, what did you do? She said "Income and Expenses" but she probably meant "Wages & Income" (if you are using Basic, Deluxe, or Premier). Under Wages & Income, there will be a subheading for "Other Common Income" as she says in step #3.

 

In TurboTax Home & Business and Self-Employed, go to the Personal tab and choose Personal Income.

 

In both cases, when you enter the Form 1099-MISC section here, you will get the questions that she reports above. When you answer these questions the way she suggests, then you will NOT have this 1099-MISC applied to a business.

 

Also, did you delete the 1099-MISC data entry that you did before that was for a business?
