Requesting link to schedule C

shamabole — Mon, 07 Apr 2025 22:44:16 GMT

This is apparently a recurring issue but I do not know how to get past it. I deleted an empty 1099-MISC but it didn't help. Should I delete any existoing 1099-MISC?

It is asking for an entry in Box 3 for other income:

"Required: double-click to select the form on which to report this income:"

There is an empty box next to Schedule C. I am supposed to paste a link in this?

Frustrating. Also, the version is Turbo Tax "Premium 2004" but the drop down says "premier". Maybe that should tell me everything..

Yes, delete any Form 1099-MISC you have in your return. If you aren't self-employed and filing a Form Schedule C, also make sure you haven't inadvertently created a Schedule C. Check by clicking on Wages and Income, Next to "Self-employment income and expenses" click on "Add/Edit". If there is a line of work listed, click on Delete.

Ohmigosh, David - that did it. That's demented, TT!

Thank you, David - would never have thought of deleting it.
