Yes, if you have income on a 1099 as an independent contractor/ subcontractor, you can write off the expenses associated with earning that income.

• Tax Home
• Federal
• Wages and Income
• Scroll down and click Add More income
• See list of all income
• Click Show More next to Self-Employment
• Start next to Self-Employment
After you enter income, it will allow you to enter expenses.
