You're not saying how... 


In TurboTax online, you will see an option on your Home Page under "Your Account" to "create W-2s and 1099s."  Then follow the QEF program step by step.

If you are a sole proprietor (self-employed), you can use TurboTax Self-Employed Online or TurboTax Home & Business CD/Download.

 

If you need to file a corporate or partnership return as part of your business, buy TurboTax Business.

 

TurboTax Quick Employer Forms for 1099-NEC

 

TurboTax Self-Employed, TurboTax Home & Business and TurboTax Business will link to TurboTax Quick Employer Forms. You can use QEP to prepare and e-file W-2s and 1099s.

Yes, you can prepare 1099 NEC by going to Quick Employer Forms.  As you answer your interview questions, you will reach a page that asks Did you pay any employees in 2021? On that page is a link Help me prepare W2's or 1099's. When you select that link, there will be a link to Quick Employer forms that will appear.
