Do you have a TurboTax Online account?

We'll help you get started or pick up where you left off.

I received a 1099-MISC. I am not self-employed. The IRS says I can report the income on Schedule 1, line 21, instead of Schedule C. How can I do this in Turbo Tax?

Just to make sure you're not self-employed, please see the TurboTax FAQ below.  Then after that, I'll attach Hal_Al's guidance on how to enter your information.

Does a 1099-MISC mean I'm self-employed?

Please refer to IRS document at this URL.... <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://www.irs.gov/faqs/interest-dividends-other-types-of-income/1099-misc-independent-contractors-... worked grading papers at an educational services company.   I don't consider myself "self-employed", I considered myself an employee of this company.    TurboTax is asking me questions about my "business", which doesn't exist.   TT needs to be more flexible.
