I have a 1099-misc from third Space rentals. It has been flagged and is asking me to fill out something in the self employed section?

What do put for line of work? and how to get to the section to add this information?

In TurboTax Online, open your return and pick up where you left off. Then look for Federal in the left panel. Click the down arrow and choose Wages & Income

 

  1. On the page "Let's get the details...", click Add/Edit to the right of Income from Form 1099-MISC.
  2. Click the pencil icon to the right of the 1099-MISC you need to work on.
  3. Work through the interview to the page "Do any of these uncommon situations apply?"
  4. Any of these choices will report the income as something other than self-employment.
  5. If none of these situations apply to the income on this 1099-MISC, click "None of these apply."
  6. Now choose between "involved work like your main job" or "didn't involve work like your main job."
  7. The following questions allow you to report this as income for a self-employment business already on your return (Schedule C) or create a new business.
  8. Continue through all the questions back to the list of Forms 1099-MISC.
