Where do I enter 1099-K federal income tax withheld info.If on the other taxes section, withholding not already entered on a W-2 or 1099, how does the IRS know it is mine

The federal tax withheld is for a Schedule C business, with its own taxpayer ID no.  Is that how the IRS can verify and compare to the 1099-K that was submitted?

[RichardK · Accepted solution]

Yes, you can enter the withholding tax from the 1099-K in the withholding not already entered on a W-2 or 1099, or you can enter the 1099-K on the 1099-MISC page. The IRS recognized that the business EIN is associated with your SSN.

TurboTaxRichardK - are you a TurboTax employee, or a TurboTax user?

When I do this TurboTax enters it as withholding from other sources. Then the IRS sends me a letter saying show us the form that this came from. So how do you get it listed as tax withheld on 1099 so there is no question were it came from?
