Question

1099 business entry vs personal entry

I am an independent contractor and receive 1099-NECs companies for commissions I earn. Both Business and Personal sections allow for 1099-NECs to be entered. I've input my 1099s in the business section however I see that it is also can be entered into the personal section. If I have already put the income in the business section, do I mark no in the personal section or leave blank?

The income from the 1099-NEC forms should be linked with your business and appear on Schedule C.

If you have already included the income as part of your Schedule C business, do not enter it again in the personal section of TurboTax.
