I was given a W-2 and I was not given a 1099-MISC. I am not self employed, yet it is still asking me to link a schedule C.

This is exactly what it is asking for:
Link to Schedule C must be entered. To associate this W-2 with the proper tax form, go to EasyStep Navagator from the progress bar, select and edit the Form W-2 associated with Statutory employee income and enter the appropriate information on the screen labeled "Reporting Statutory Employee Income"

There is no "EasyStep Navagator" and I don't know how to link this schedule C or what it even is. Thanks!
This feature is pending. Thanks for your patience.

The reason you're being asked to do this has to do with Box 13 on your W-2.  The program thinks you checked that you were a statutory employee in Box 13.  Look at your paper W-2.  If that checkmark was entered by accident, go back to your W-2 to correct the entry.

Click on the Federal taxes tab, then Wages and Income just below.  You should be able to Update your W-2 income there and edit the W-2 in question.
