I tried to add this in the Investment Income section. Every time I enter it, it wants to put it in self employment and create a Schedule C. Box 3 is the only box that is checked and it is only $31. I didn't have a problem last year, but for some reason I am having this issue this year. I am using Turbo tax online. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

    The problem is the questions asked since you got this last year as well. 

     

    Enter the 1099-MISC Under

    Wages & Income

    Other Common Income

    Income from Form 1099-MISC   START

    Enter the 1099-MISC as it was reported, and type in the description, 

    Select "None of these apply" for uncommon situations, 

    "NO" not like main job, 

    Only got it in 2024, 

    "NO" no intent to earn money, 

    DONE

     These are TurboTax questions, not IRS questions. These need to be the answers to let TurboTax know it is not Self-Employment.

    No problem. I was able to confirm their EIN number and followed @KrisD15 steps to fill out the 1099-MISC. It took it this time.  That was a little frustrating. It's a blessing to have people like you help us. Thank you so much and have a great week!

    You will need to delete the Schedule C that was started.   You need to get the EIN in order to e-file; is their a contact number on your 1099-misc?   

     

    Their EIN should be in the box labeled PAYER'S TIN - your id number should be in the RECIPIENT'S TIN box.
