How can I prepare a 1099-MISC with 2018 Home & Business? I did one with TT support but forget how so I know it is unnecessary to upgrade to to the Self Employed version

In the Window's Home & Business or Business Desktop program to Prepare W2s or 1099s, go to Start a New Return or File-New Return.
Then on the next screen it asks What would you like to do?
 
Check the circle that says Prepare W-2s and 1099s for my employees or contractors.  Then that will expand and give you a choice to prepare them online or on your computer.  

If you select to do them online using the Quick Employer Forms the forms are efiled to the IRS.  You then print the copies to give out to your people and print copies for yourself.  See this for more info…..

If you select to do them on your computer you are responsible to mail the forms to the IRS.

You need to give a 1099Misc to anyone you paid $600 or more to for the year. But not to corporations or for merchandise. You send the IRS a copy of the 1099Misc with the transmittal summary form 1096. These are due to the person and to the IRS by Jan 31
