The reason it may be asking you this is if the information was reported in Box 7 of the 1099 Misc. From what you just told me, this income should have been reported in Box 3. You may need to request a corrected 1099 MISC to show this income in Box 3 as other income and not Box 7, non employee compensation. IRS will always assume that Box 7 income is Self-Employment income to be reported on a Schedule C.
