Yes. Contract Labor is a general business expense for Form 1065 that is normally included in Line 21 Other Deductions with a custom description.

Please clarify if you received Form 1099-NEC for income that needs to be reported on your business or individual return. Or did you prepare Form 1099-NEC for someone who worked for your business and are asking where to report that expense?

 

Also, what version of TurboTax are your working with?
