Actually I would just enter your total income as Other self employment income or as Cash or General income.  You don't need to get a 1099NEC or 1099Misc or 1099K.  Even if you did you can enter all your income as Cash.  Only the total goes to schedule C.   You can fill out Schedule C and enter 1099NEC, Cash or Self Employment Income into Online Deluxe but if you have any expenses you will have to upgrade to the Premium or use any of the Desktop CD/Download programs. All the Desktop programs have the same forms, so you can buy a lower version.  You just get more help and guidance in the higher versions.   How to enter income from Self Employment https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/self-employed/help/how-do-i-report-income-from-self-employment/00/26653

You will have to report your income from Form 1099-NEC on Schedule C.  The IRS considers this income as self-employment income. You don't have to name the business, you can use your name.

As long as you scheduled your direct debit before the due date (April 15, 2025), there's nothing to worry about.  the IRS  or your state may not be able to debit your payment until after the deadline, due to high e-filing volume. Also, it can take your bank another few days to post the debit to your account.   Refer to the TurboTax Help article When will my tax payment go through?   @dweaver2575

The most common rejection is for the wrong AGI.   Try entering 0 for the AGI. The IRS might have processed your return later so the AGI didn't get entered in time.  Especially if you mailed it.  That works for most people.
