Filling out 1099-MISC without a form

I worked as a mystery shopper with market force. I didn't receive a 1099-MISC because I had only made $71.27 USD. Thus I didnt receive a proper 1099-MISC with all the information needed on it. how do i go about filing this on my taxes without the information?

If you did not receive a 1099-misc or W-2, then you can report this as miscellaneous income.

Select Federal Taxes, Wages & Income, I'll Choose What to Work On

Scroll to Less Common Income, and select Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C

Select Other Income not already reported on For W-2 or for 1099

Select Yes

Continue until you see Any Other Earned Income, and select yes, now on the next screen select other

Complete the information

I was an uber eats deliver driver in 2019 and my gross earnings were $1462.12, minus expenses, fees and tax of $42.98, with net payout of $1419.14 for the year covering 1409 online app miles in my car. I've called and asked Uber for my 1099-misc but they told me there was an issue posting my 1099 electronically and through email they just keep sending back information on how to view my taxes, even though the form is not posted and they know it. So I don't think they are going to post a 1099 for me or report one. How can I file my taxes without one?

JosephF8, What about in TurboTax Online? It doesn't have the options you describe.

That is for the Online version.  Which online version do you have?  You can enter Self Employment Income into Online Deluxe or Premier but if you have any expenses you will have to upgrade to the Self Employed version.
