1099misc

[hlchmiller]

Turbo Tax wants to treat my 1099misc Legal Service as a business.  It is NOT a business, but a misc. income.  How do I get just a misc. income?  I do not see a chose for other

If this is for services that you performed with an intent to make money, and it's reported in Box 7 as Nonemployee Compensation, then it is considered business income by the IRS and is subject to Self-Employment Tax.

Not sure I understand your dilemma.  I just wen thru a 1099 misc and didn't find a business option. Where are you getting hung up?

[hlchmiller]

I have tried doing my taxes twice ever time I put in my 1099misc the program keeps asking for business information.  When I delete the form and try again I have the same problem.

It is a legal service offered to retiree if they need to use it .
