This says self employed. I am not. How do I reset?

If you received a 1099-MISC with a dollar amount in box 7, you are likely considered self-employed. Here's how to make these entries:

 

To enter a 1099-MISC in TurboTax:

  1. Open or continue your return, if you're not already in it.
  2. Search for 1099-misc and then select the "Jump-to" link or "Go to" button at the top of your search results.
  3. Answer Yes to Did you get a 1099-MISC?
  • If you already entered a 1099-MISC, you'll be on the 1099-MISC Summary screen, in which case select Add Another 1099-MISC.
  • Or, if you need to edit or delete a previously-entered 1099-MISC, select the appropriate button.
  • Enter the info from your form into the corresponding boxes.
  • If you need to enter boxes 4–6 or 8–18, check My form has other info in boxes 1–18 to expand the form.

Yes, if you are self-employed, and do independent evangelism and missions work then those earnings would be eligible for the Qualified Business Income (QBI) deduction. Self-employment by definition meets the QBI requirements.

 

If you are employed by a church or religious organization as a minister, pastor, etc, and your earnings are reported on a W-2 as required, those earnings would not be eligible for the QBI.
