If I filled out my income from Form 1099-MISC do I need to fill out a self-employment income and expenses?

[GiseleD]

On your 1099-MISC, was the income reported in box 7? If so, yes. 

To enter self-employment income and expenses, follow these steps:

1) Once in your return, click Federal (left-hand menu bar)

2) Click Income & Expenses at the top. 

3) Look for Self-employment income and expenses.

• You may have to expand the choices in the Income & Expenses section to get this subsection to appear. 

4) Click Start when you find this section, and follow the guided interview.

You can enter Self Employment Income into Online Deluxe or Premier but if you have any expenses you will have to upgrade to the Self Employed version.

Be careful not to add it twice.  So if you already entered the 1099Misc don't enter the amount as income again.  Make sure you entered it in the right place the first time and it shows up on schedule C and not as other income.
