Please clarify the nature of the 1099. Is it a 1099-R, 1099-DIV, 1099- MISC, or other forms? And what version of TurboTax are you in? This will help guide us to the right place to resolve your question.

1099-MISC, Online TurboTax.

At any rate, I can't modify ANY of my income. I think I remember having this issue last year too and had to enter every section from scratch, not being able to update the income sections from the previous year.

Now I have the same issue. The program doesn't even run me to enter any income at all and skips to deductions.

To enter a 1099-MISC:

Open or continue your return, if you're not already in it.
Search for 1099-misc and select the Jump-to link.
Answer Yes to Did you get a 1099-MISC?
- If you already entered a 1099-MISC, you'll be on the 1099-MISC Summary screen, in which case select Add Another 1099-MISC.
- If you need to edit or delete a previously-entered 1099-MISC, select the appropriate button.
Enter the info from your form into the corresponding boxes.
- If you need to enter boxes 4–6 or 8–17, check My form has other info in boxes 1–17 to expand the form.

If your 1099-MISC was for any of the following, you'll enter it in another section of TurboTax.

Rental Properties and Royalties (Schedule E):
- Search for rental income and expenses (using this exact phrase) and select the Jump to link
Farm Income and Farm Rental:
- Search for farm income and select the Jump to link

There's no JUMP TO link when I follow these steps. The only thing showing up is more answers like this one.

What happened to Turbo Tax? It used to be so easy.... what am I doing wrong?
