1099-MISC

Turbotax does not have a place to enter box 7 of the 1099-MISC form, Nonemployee compensation. Where should the information in box 7 be entered from my form1099-Misc ?

What is it for?  If for work you did, you should have received a 1099-NEC instead.

Non-employee compensation should have been reported on Form 1099-NEC.  Beginning in 2020, the IRS has changed the method of reporting non-employee compensation, which used to be reported in Box 7 of the 1099-MISC.  Non-employee compensation is now reported on Form 1099-NEC.
