I think I've answered my own question...
... As soon as I indicate he has received it in prior years and expects it next year, [TurboTax] begins treating it as self-employment income [and] prompts me to answer questions related to self-employment income that aren't relevant and don't make sense for this type of income...
That's actually the answer. Even though he receives it every year, I should only select that he received it this year. I learned in another topic that this is a workaround to TurboTax. I don't think it actually changes anything on the return except it doesn't generate a Schedule C.
I follow these instructions but it’s still taking me to a schedule Se. I am not self-employed
At this point:
there is an entry in line 6
You simply need to enter your 1099-MISC as the information is shown on the form, including info in box 6 of the form.
To do this in TurboTax Online you can follow these steps:
I have deleted other income and started over adding a 1099 Misc. I am a college intern for a company and they sent me the 1099 Misc. I'm not self employed nor do I have a tax code to complete the schedule C that it keeps taking me to. Also, how do you access directly to the forms and input the amount on the correct line without having to go through the interview questions? How is this reported?
Here are the steps to enter your 1099-MISC:
4. On the screen, "Did you get a 1099-MISC?" answer "Yes."
5. Enter the 1099-MISC.
6. Continue > Done.
