Please look at the year on your Form 1099-NEC.  This form is not scheduled to be used in tax returns until the 2020 Tax return returns.

 

As we are currently preparing 2019 Tax returns, you may want to go back to the issuer of the 1099-NEC to determine if it should have been a 1099-Misc Form instead.  

 

Attached is additional information on the 1099-NEC.

Why does the TurboTax software personal income section not include 1099-NEC for 2020?

@Greg-rsm  Are you using the Desktop program?  If you are not showing 1099NEC income you need to update your program. It was just added on Jan 7. Are you on Windows? Go up to Online - Check for Updates.


If you have the Online version or even in the Desktop program just enter your total business income as Cash or General. You don't need to enter the actual 1099Misc or 1099NEC. Only the total goes to schedule C line 1.
