My self employed job for uber eats did not provide me with a 1099-misc form. turbo tax is making me enter their EIN, which i do not have, but have to enter. what do i put?

If you do not have a Form 1099-MISC, do not enter your income on the screen for the Form 1099-MISC.  Enter your income on Schedule C as 'cash' income, using your own records to know how much to claim.

Delete the Form 1099-MISC that you have attempted to enter.

i don’t know the steps of getting to the schedule C section, i’m new to doing my taxes. you mind providing step by step on how to get that page?

We'll automatically complete Schedule C when you set up your self-employment work in TurboTax or when you enter what the IRS considers self-employment income, which is usually reported on Form 1099-MISC.

Schedule C is supported in TurboTax Self-Employed (both online and in the mobile app) and in all personal 1040 versions of the TurboTax CD/Download software.

To set up your business:

1. Open or continue your return.
2. Search for schedule c and click the Jump to link in the search results.
3. Answer Yes to Did you have any self-employment income or expenses?
   • If you've already entered self-employment work and need to enter more, select Add another line of work.
4. Follow the onscreen instructions.

If you need Schedule C to report a 1099-MISC, search for 1099-misc and select the Jump to link. Answer Yes to Did you get a 1099-MISC? We'll ask questions to find out if your 1099 income needs to go on Schedule C. More about entering 1099-MISC

If your 2018 or earlier return requires Schedule C-EZ, we'll also generate a Schedule C for background calculation purposes only. It won't get filed with your return.
