I have tried to fix a 1099 NEC that turbo tax claims is incomplete but yet it won't take it. I even deleted and reentered it. What do I do?

I ran the federal review and it told me that one of my 1099 NEC's was incomplete.  I initially tried changing it but it wouldn't let me.

Why am I not able to link my 1099-NEC

One of the most common reasons you’d receive tax form 1099-NEC (Form 1099-MISC in prior years) is if you're self-employed or did work as an independent contractor during the previous year. The IRS refers to this as “nonemployee compensation.”

• In most circumstances, your clients are required to issue Form 1099-NEC when they pay you $600 or more in any year.
• As a self-employed person, you're required to report your self-employment income if the amount you receive from all sources totals $400 or more.

Your self-employment net profit will show on your Schedule 1 line 3 and line 8 of your Form 1040.

I’m still having this same problem and then link that was posted is invalid. How do I fix this?

If you entered Form 1099-NEC under Other Common Income, delete that entry. Now go to Self-Employed Income and Expenses and enter this income for your business. Entering the information here will avoid the need to link the income to your business.
