If you had self-employment income from a 1099-MISC in the prior year, it would have been carried over to this year's return as a 1099-NEC. For 2020, nonemployee compensation on the prior year Form 1099-MISC is now reported on Form 1099-NEC. You can delete this from your return and must as well delete your Schedule C.
To delete, please follow the instructions below:
- Open your return.
- Search for 1099-NEC with the magnifying glass tool at the top of the page.
- Click on the Jump to 1099-NEC link at the top of the search results.
- Delete any 1099-NEC's entries with the trash can icon.
- Then, search for Schedule C with the magnifying glass tool on the top of the page.
- Select the Jump to Schedule C link in the search results.
- Select No to the question Did you have any self-employment income or expenses?
- Click on Tools.
- Click on Delete a Form.
- Scroll down to your forms and look for forms you need to remove (Schedule C/Schedule SE) and click Delete.
