Is a Form 1099-Misc for nonemployee compensation considered self-employment so I have to upgrade?

This is in the amount of $2366.  I filled in for the office's receptionist so there are no self-employed expenses associated with this.

Yes, if you received a 1099-MISC with income listed in Box 7 (non employee compensation), the payer considered you either self employed or an independent contractor. In order for TurboTax to accommodate this type of form and income, you will need TurboTax Self Employment.
