I'm not sure if TT will update the software for the 2021 tax year. As explained in my UPDATE on this topic, TT collected all 1099s in the same section but because the 1099-NECs are treated as Business Income and is reported on Schedule C, it is rolled up into that part of the Income Summary page. Unlike other 1099s, your income from self-employment is considered a business income and you can take business expense deductions. It is correct for TT to ensure that the 1099-NECs are not rolled-up in two places (individual income and business income) which would lead to excess taxes.
It would be helpful for 2022 if TT would collect the 1099-NEC info under the business income section and not along with the other 1099s (INT, DIV, MISC). It would further help avoid confusion if the links that provide information on the 1099s explains why this 1099-NECs are handled separately.
