1099-MISC and Schedule C

[Skeeter54]

I have a 1099-MISC for income that is not earned and is not subject to social security taxes.  But when I enter the form data, TT2022 automatically send me to Form C for business income.  How can I enter this data so it only appears as regular taxable income not subject to SSI?

You should be entering your 1099-MISC as "Other Common Income" on the Wages & Income page and not under "Self-Employment".  You will need to delete the Schedule C and re-enter your 1099-MISC.

To delete a specific form in TurboTax Online you can follow these steps:

1. Within your return, click on Tax Tools in the black menu on the left side of the screen.
2. Click on Tools.
3. Click on Delete a Form. 
4. Scroll down to your Schedule C and click Delete.
5. Under Federal in the black menu bar click Wages & Income to get back into your tax returns

Follow these steps to enter your 1099-MISC:

1. Open or continue your return
2. Select the magnifying glass and search for 1099-misc. Select the Jump-to link
3. Answer Yes to Did you get a 1099-MISC?
   • If you already entered a 1099-MISC, you'll be on the 1099-MISC Summary screen, in which case you'll select Add Another 1099-MISC
4. Enter the info from your form into the corresponding boxes
   • If you need to enter boxes 4–6 or 8–17, check My form has other info in boxes 1–17 to expand the form
5. Continue answering the following questions until you get to the Did the bonus involve work that's like your main job? screen and answer No
6. Continue and answer I got it in 2022 on the How often did you get income for bonus? screen
7. Continue and answer No on the Did the bonus involve an intent to earn money? screen and Continue
8. If you have another 1099-MISC you can enter it or answer No and Continue
9. Proceed entering/reviewing your return
