You'll have to change your answers since it isn't self-employment

Enter the 1099-MISC Under

Wages & Income

Other Common Income

Income from Form 1099-MISC START

Enter the 1099-MISC as it was reported,

Type "Vehicle Reimbursement " in for 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.

These are payments that some salespersons get.

Thank you! For some reason when I enter my husband's 1099MISC, Turbo Tax keeps saying it will add it to Schedule C, but my husband is not self employed. He is a salesman and the 1099MISC is for a vehicle allowance. Not sure if TurboTax labelling it as "self employed income" is going to mess up my return or not. I've tried deleting and reentering. It keeps asking if the work done to receive the 1099MISC was like my husband's main job or if it was different. The income was from my husband's main job but was part of his compensation, not an incentive for selling something. I'm confused as to how to answer...
