Why did you receive the Form 1099? There are almost two dozen different 1099's which one did you receive?
Form 1099-INT, 1099-DIV, 1099-MISC, 1099-NEC, 1099-R, 1099-S, SSA-1099, etc.
Did you have self-employment income? Do you have a 1099NEC? What travel expenses are you asking about? If you have self-employment income then you need to be using online Premier or any version of the CD/download software in order to prepare a Schedule C for business expenses such as milage driven while working. Commuting to and from work is never deductible. You may be eligible for the child tax credit and/or earned income credit, depending on the income you enter.
We haven't received one yet.But DoorDash is gonna be sending us a 1099.So I'm not sure which one I just need to know if i could still get earned income credit and the child tax credit.If I claim my gasoline as an expense
Yes---you have self-employment income. Yes, you might be able to get child tax credit and/or earned income credit. The amounts will depend on how much you earned.
If you have self-employment income for which you will pay self-employment tax for Social Security and Medicare, you will need to use online Premium software or any version of the CD/download so that you can prepare a Schedule C for your business expenses.
