There seems to be a fundamental error in the Turbo Tax software this year. I am filing a 1099-Misc for income received from the Washington (State) Families Tax Credit. I have filed this income for the last four years. This year, it is REQUIRING me to fill out a Schedule C (Business form) related to this income. It gives me no alternative and will not allow me to electronically file my taxes without first filing a schedule C. This is a fundamental error. It is not giving me any alternatives, and this was never a problem in the past. Is there a workaround?

Are you entering this under self employment income?

Please try this option:

From the TurboTax home screen Select the Income tab. Scroll down and click + Add Income
On the Other Income Tab, select Other Common Income, and then Income from Form 1099-MISC
You will need to go back to the home screen, and again to the Income tab, you will now see a tab added to enter Form 1099-MISC. You should be able to see the questions and prompts to select the type of income you receive.

If you have already try this method and keep having issues reply to this thread or contact Customer Support on the link below
