I was given 2 - 1099 from my employer. Turbo Tax wants me to report how I am paying for items. I do not own the company. How am I suppose to complete my taxes?

The company paid me with checks but never took out any taxes. They gave me 2 - 1099's for there two different company owners.I do not own the company. I was making phone phone call to sell products for them.

It sounds like you received Form 1099-MISC. That means the companies you worked for did not consider you an employee, but rather a contractor. That means you're self-employed, aka in business for yourself.

TurboTax will ask if you received Form 1099-MISC. Just answer Yes and you'll be guided through entering the info needed.
