1099 misc

Non-Employee income is now supposed to be reported on Form 1099-NEC, in box 1. In prior years, this type of income was reported on Form 1099-MISC.  If you worked as an independent contractor, you should have received Form 1099-NEC, not Form 1099-MISC.  If you did receive a 1099-MISC for your non-employee compensation, the best solution would be to get a corrected 1099.  You could enter the 1099-MISC as if it were a 1099-NEC, and report your earnings in Box 1.  This will result in a correct tax return, but could generate a letter from the IRS that you did not report the 1099-MISC, which would be easily resolved by responding to the IRS explaining what you did and why.
