1099 MISC

[doquendo30]

Hello - My wife worked for Uber eats during 2021. She revived a 1099-NEC form but it appears that there is no 1099 MISC being created for the income / compensation she received. Should there be a 1099-Misc generated by Uber Eats? The only additional documentation besides the 1099 NEC documentation that she downloaded was the 2021 Tax Summary. It shows the 1099-NEC she received and has the breakdown of what Uber charged her for Expenses,Fees and Taxes and it shows what her earnings were after all the deductions.

No she will not receive both a 1099NEC and a 1099Misc.   She received a 1099NEC.   That's it.   Enter it in Self-Employed or any version of the desktop software to prepare a Schedule C for her self-employment income and expenses.

As stated by @xmasbaby0, after 2020, nonemployee compensation on the prior year Form 1099-MISC is now reported on Form 1099-NEC. Therefore, it is correct that Uber Eats gave her a 1099-NEC for 2021. 

To enter your 1099-NEC in TurboTax:

1. Sign in and open or continue your return.
2. Search for 1099-NEC and select the Jump to link.
3. Answer the questions and continue through to enter the information from your form.

When you’re done, TurboTax will ask you a few questions and help you through entering any expenses you may have so that you can reduce your taxable income. The amount that Uber Eats charged your wife can be deducted under the category of Commissions. 

As a self-employed taxpayer, you're also going to start seeing some new forms on your tax return (don't worry – TurboTax will automatically fill these out for you as you proceed through the TurboTax interview):

• Schedule C: This calculates your net profit or loss, which carries over to Schedule 1, line 3.
• Schedule SE: This calculates your self-employment tax, which shows up on Schedule 2, line 4. You get to deduct half of it; that amount transfers over to Schedule 1, line 15.
• 1040-ES: TurboTax will generate four of these estimated payment vouchers, one for each quarter, if (like many newly self-employed people) you didn't withhold or pay enough taxes throughout the year. These vouchers are for next year's return, in case you need them.
