I work as an Independent Contractor and my Independent business Owner has not sent me my 1099-MISC yet. How do I add the income onto my taxes without that tax document?

Most people get a Form 1099-MISC in the mail when they do contract or freelance work and make  over  $600.

Note: It's important to remember that you still need to report all of your income even if you did not receive a 1099-MISC.

Since you didn't receive a 1099-MISC, you can report other income simply by following the instructions below:

1. Sign into you TurboTax account.
2. Click Pick up where I left off (if not already open)
3. Click Federal Taxes tab
4. Click Wages & Income sub category.
5. Select I'll choose what I work on option.
6. Scroll all the way down to the Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C (under less common income) and click Start/Update.
7. Click Start/Update next to Other income not already reported on a Form W-2 or Form 1099 and follow the online screen prompts to enter you income.
