TurboTax Self Employed Online

Hal_Al

Level 15

Yes. You cannot use the "Free" edition and may have to upgrade to top of the line "Self Employment".

But

TurboTax also has another free product called the FREEDOM Edition (not to be confused with the regular Free Edition). It has free Federal preparation and free State preparation. There is no efiling fee. It is not available after October 15

The FREEDOM Edition can handle a 1099-MISC.

The Freedom Edition is more fully-featured than the regular Free Edition. The Freedom Edition can prepare Schedule A, C, D, E, and F that the Free Edition cannot. It will prepare a Form 1040 or 1040A or 1040EZ.

For Freedom Edition a user needs to meet only ONE of these qualifications:

AGI of $33,000 or less
or active duty military (including Reservists and National Guard) with a military-issued W-2 and a 2017 AGI of $66,000 or less
or eligible for the Earned Income Credit (EIC aka EITC).

The FREEDOM Edition is located at:
