Schedule C Worksheet: Desc - Non 1099 Misc 1 must be entered. What is this?

[FaithY · Accepted solution]

You have an Other Miscellaneous expense description entered in your business section of TurboTax without a corresponding amount. 

You can enter the amount in the check entry screen, if you know what expense doesn't have an amount. 

If you don't know what expense the check entry is referring to, you can navigate back to your business and review the other miscellaneous expenses you have entered to find the one without an amount. Please see the instructions below.

To navigate back to your business:

1. Sign on and continue with your tax return

2. Click Federal (On the left of the screen)

3. Click Income & Expenses (on the top of the screen)

4. Click Edit/Add next to your business

5. Click Edit next to your business 

6. Click Review next to Other miscellaneous expenses

7. Find the miscellaneous expense that doesn't have an amount next to a description. If you don't need the description, you can delete that miscellaneous expense. Otherwise, enter an amount.
