You are posting from the most expensive version of online TurboTax--Self-Employed Live.  That is most certainly not free.  Only the most simple returns are free.

You can try to clear and start over or change to a different free version if you have not registered or filed.

You cannot enter a 1099Misc or self-employment income when you are using the Free Edition.  If you qualify, there is another free software program available from TurboTax which will allow you to enter self-employment income.

Try Free File: 

You qualify if your income was $34,000 or less, or $66,000 or less if active duty military, or if you qualify for Earned Income Credit

You have to use a different account and user ID.
