Why ami doing self employed

If your 1099-MISC has an amount in Box 7 (Nonemployee compensation), the payer did not consider you an employee. Instead, they are treating you as a self-employed worker, also called an independent contractor.

The Schedule C Form used to file a 1099-MISC is only available with the Self Employed product.
