I can't find where there were two questions about whether I paid over $600 to a contractor and whether I needed to send a 1099. I answered no to both questions because I verified that they were a corporation (which was paid over $600). I wanted to review the wording on the first question to see if I answered correctly and don't want an IRS flag or something. The question may have been referring to any entity and not just an individual. Where can I have a look at the question again? Maybe it was in a QBI section.

If you are filing as a business, it was likely in your Schedule C, Business Expenses Section, regarding if you paid any contractors with a Form 1099.
You will enter payments for Contractor Labor in the Business Expenses section. You do not need to enter them individually. You will just enter a description along with the total the amount paid. You can also list each separately with a description in that area
How to get to that area : While inside the software and working on your return, type Schedule C in the Search at the top of the screen (you may see a magnifying glass there).
There will be a popup that says Jump to Schedule C. Select that to get to the general area.

Those questions would be under Business Profile not expenses. I'm not sure how to get there in the Online version. But go to Schedule C and look for business profile or details.
I found the wording in schedule C so that's where I saw it. I guess it wasn't referring to schedule E which is where my question really was about the repair work payments. I guess it doesn't ask that question for schedule E and doesn't allow for breakdown of different services.
