No a 1099 is not the same as a W-2. You can click that you do not have a W-2 and move on to enter the 1099 elsewhere in the income screens. But what kind of 1099 do you have? There are over a dozen kinds. We need to know what you are trying to enter. Is it a SSA10999 from Social Security? a 1099R from a pension? A1099DIV? a 1099INT? a 1099B? etc.etc etc. Or a 1099NEC for self-employment income?
