I entered my 1099-Misc as Business income but it also automatically shows up under personal income. Am I paying tax twice??

No.  1099 MISC forms can be entered in a couple different spots in TurboTax for the convenience of the user.  Both entry points store the data in the same place.  You can double check your return to make sure the income is not recorded twice by switching to FORMS mode and selecting the 1040 form or Schedule C from the left hand column.  See how to switch to FORMS mode in a CD/Download version of TurboTax below:

Hello.  Did you find a fix for this issue? Not only is my income showing up 2xs but my expense is also because I entered it.  Need help.
