I have two different 1099-NEC that I have linked to a Schedule C.

The link is totally functional but the error checking says NO .. it's bad.

I'm stuck. I'm very unhappy.

For now you can delete the 1099-NEC completely then enter this income directly on your Schedule C. The entry of this form is not required to file your return, instead keep it with your tax return files.

Search > Type schedule c > Click the Jump to... link > Edit beside your business > Enter the business income

This will eliminate your error and allow you to file.

You'll need to delete this form1099-NEC.

Rather than linking them, you might try entering them as income directly on Schedule C.

Business Income and Expenses

Select EDIT for the business from the list

Scroll down to Business Income START or UPDATE

1099-NEC Income START or UPDATE

I just tried that by removing the two links and entering the value, but I have to use override which also won't get past error checking.

Guess my only position is to stick them in the non-1099-MISC and non-1099-NEC income slot.

This tool is broken.
