My husband worked a job that he got a 1099-NEC. Will he be notified by social security what he owes or does he need to contact someone?

No, he can just file it with the tax return. The program will calculate the tax.

We'll automatically complete Schedule C for you when you set up your self-employment work or income in TurboTax, which is usually reported on Form 1099-NEC or 1099-MISC. It gets attached to your Form 1040 which we'll also handle for you.

To set up your business:

1. Open or continue your return.
2. Search for schedule c and click the Jump to link in the search results.
3. Answer Yes to Did you have any self-employment income or expenses?
   • If you've already entered self-employment work and need to enter more, select Add another line of work.
4. Follow the onscreen instructions.
