how to enter more than one 1099 employer

I work part time with two employers

If you only have one business, or line of work, you can enter both 1099s as your income, summed together in your Schedule C.  If they are separate businesses, you can add the second 1099-NEC, and choose to create a second business.  

Here is how to enter the 1099-NEC in TurboTax Online:
1. Navigate to Federal > Income > Wages & Income Summary
2. Locate Other Common Income and select to expand
3. Select Start (or Revisit) to the right of 1099-NEC
4. Answer Yes, you got a 1099-NEC
5. Complete the interview to report the income

Someone who gives you a 1099 is not an employer. They are a client, and you are in business for yourself. You report the income as business income. As MindyB said, if the type of work that you do for the two clients is similar you can report it as one business and enter both 1099s in that one business.

If you have further questions, please state what type of 1099 you got. Is it a 1099-NEC, 1099-MISC, or something else?
