Why did you get the 1099Misc? Box 7 is usually considered self employment income.

Same problem here! Not a regular employee, just dance instructor at a studio not owned by her.

That is 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.

You can enter Self Employment Income into Online Deluxe or Premier but if you have any expenses you will have to upgrade to the Self Employed version.
