Yes, however you should combine the income for one business and enter it there. You should not have two Schedule Cs for the same type of activity.  If necessary you can delete the 1099-NECs and enter the income directly in your business activity as 'Other, Cash, Check, etc'. 

 

First delete your 1099-NECs and next enter your self employment income and expenses in one business activity.

  • If you're using TurboTax Desktop software and need to delete a form, click here.

Enter the income and expenses using the steps and links below.

  1. Open or continue your return.
  2. Navigate to the Schedule C section:
    • TurboTax Online/Mobile: Go to Schedule C.
    • TurboTax Desktop: Search for Schedule C and select the Jump to link.
  3. Answer Yes on the Did you have any self-employment income or expenses? screen.
    • If you land on the Your 2024 self-employed work summary page, select Review next to the work you're adding income for.
  4. Answer the questions on the following screens until you arrive at Let's enter the income for your work.
  5. Select Other self-employed income and select Continue.
  6. On the next page you can enter any cash, personal checks, credit card payments, or cryptocurrency (Form 1099-K) related to your self-employment.

So, I put the 1099 NEC on the same schedule. So it's all in one income since it's the same line of work. But, I've heard some self-employment say that they basically can report the same deductions in each of the 1099 NEC with the same line of work. I wanted to be sure if you can do such.

Yes, you will enter the deductions on the same Schedule C that you enter the income.  @Antoinettemixon
