Well, thanks for the info, that will probably work, but I don't really want to spend an extra $40 to cover $960 of income from my wife. I guess this will be the last year I will use Turbo Tax since I can't expect them to provide a quality product any more.
My wife does not run her own business. She is a coordinator for Foreign Exchange Students.

Beginning with the 2020 tax year, the IRS will require business taxpayers to report nonemployee compensation on the new Form 1099-NEC instead of on Form 1099-MISC. Businesses will need to use this form if they made payments totaling $600 or more to a nonemployee, such as an independent contractor. This was done to help clarify the separate filing deadlines on Form 1099-MISC and the new 1099-NEC form will be used starting with the 2020 tax year.
What I did, my husband and I are filing married jointly, so that I could get past this I restarted and created a whole new form, but instead of putting my husband’s name in first, I put mine in, and the 1099-NEC fell right into place.....I know that is not an answer for some of you who have both 1099-NEC, but it worked for me......oh ps: while I was finishing up, a question popped up on the self employment deferral tax, you may get more back but you may need to pay more out in 2021, it is a tax deferral due to COVID under the Cares Act.
I’ve been having the same issue. Called turbo tax 3 times! No one seems to know when this will be resolved! Really frustrating!
I tried deleting 1099-NEC forms (my husband and I each have one) and redoing them again. I tried deleting them completely and see if I could get passed that screened. Nope nothing works!
getting this as well and supremely annoyed seeing how I already paid for the deluxe service or whatever and can't even file. any way around this?

This does not help at all. This problem has been going on since early January. I’m going to switch software on Monday if it’s not fixed by then.
this is the longest that TurboTax has taken to fix an error.
I need my refund. I can’t wait any longer. I’m going to be busy at work until may and this was my only window to complete my taxes with as much attention that I have given it. It’s unfortunate because I have used TurboTax for 20 years.
Try deleting the 1099-NEC, clearing your browser cache and cookies, and re-entering in the self-employed income screens. If this is for Self-employed income return, try entering it in the self-employed business income screen versus in the 1099-NEC add screen.

@QueenClio523 I am having exactly this same problem. No spouse, no 1099-NEC for 2020, but TurboTax wants me to fill in details from my spouse's 1099-NEC. (This also didn't come up until the "Review" stage of completing my taxes; it did not come up anywhere in filling out my federal or state information.) Have you been able to make any progress?
I gave up and mailed our taxes. Sucks that turbo tax has had this glitch for like 3 weeks now and unable to fix it! Will be considering using a different program next year to file my taxes.
Ok, thank you. I removed it from the income and. Left in schedule c and it seemed to fix it and it was still calculated correctly. Thank you!
Yes I was! What happened was that the 1099-misc files from the previous year had transferred over. Once I deleted them it worked. However, it was hard for me to get back to them. I think when I searched 1099-nec it redirected me there.
