I haven't filed my return yet but need to send out a 1099-MISC to someone now. Is there a place on the site that will let me do that?

If you are self-employed you are responsible for paying self-employment tax for Social Security and Medicare if you made even $400.  You have been using Free Edition and not filing for self-employment?

You cannot enter a 1099Misc or self-employment income when you are using the Free Edition.  If you qualify, there is another free software program available from TurboTax which will allow you to enter self-employment income.

Try Free File: 

You qualify if your income was $34,000 or less, or $66,000 or less if active duty military, or if you qualify for Earned Income Credit

You can prepare a 1099Misc if you are using Self-Employed or desktop Home and Business.  Do you have  a business of some sort?  Why do you need to issue a 1099Misc?

 Yes, I have a small business where I pay an IC. "using Self-Employed or desktop Home and Business" - is this a product I need to buy? I've only ever filed my own return for free on Turbotax.

If you do not qualify for Free File you need to use Self-Employment or the desktop Home and Business software.

I do qualify for free file. Must have been using that when I filed. But I have been crawling all over where I usually file (free) and nowhere does it offer me the chance to file a 1099 without having already filed my own return. That's where I am stuck.
