If the 1099 is in yours wife's name and Social Security number you will need to set up a separate Schedule C for her income and expenses.

Schedule C businesses show as belonging to one spouse or the other, not both.

You can create a separate Schedule C for your wife to claim her income and expenses.

Go to Federal
