TurboTax does not have access to pull anyone's information from another customer's QuickBooks account.

 

See here, for example, for instructions on the QuickBooks site for an employer to access a former employee's W-2.

 

You mentioned a 1099, though you identified the payer as an "employer". If you were working as an independent contractor, you can report your income on your Schedule C directly if you didn't receive a 1099.

 

See Joanna B2's response in this thread. Businesses are required to issue 1099-NEC to independent contractors on payments over $600. If not available, you can use your deposit slips or bank statement to file your self-employment income and enter the total income on Schedule C, other income not reported on 1099-NEC.

 

The independent contractor's self-employment income is reported on form 1099-NEC (previously 1099-MISC).

 

The form 1099-MISC is used to report: royalties ($10 or more), at least $600 of rents, prizes, and awards, attorney's fees, and other cash payments.

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.
