If you are using online software you need online Premium or any version of the CD/download. You cannot use the Free Edition for self-employment income.

You will be paying self-employment tax for Social Security and Medicare as well as ordinary income tax, since nothing was withheld by the client that issued the 1099NEC to you.

Did you get a 1099NEC? Or need to give one to someone you paid?

if you got a 1099NEC you need to upgrade to Deluxe. A 1099NEC is for self employment income. Yes you are the owner of your own self employment business. You are in business for yourself. Use your own info. The people or company that pays you is your customer or client. You need to fill out schedule C for self employment business income. You are considered to have your own business for it. YOU are the business.

To report your self employment income you will fill out schedule C in your personal 1040 tax return and pay SE self employment Tax. Here's a Schedule C https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1040sc.pdf

You can enter Self Employment Income into Online Deluxe but if you have any expenses you will have to upgrade to Premium or use any of the Desktop CD/Download programs.

How to enter self employment income

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.
