How do I file my 1099-NEC that I received as a part of the student teacher support program? Do I select the option for Self Employment or just Form 1099-NEC?

If the issuing organization provided you with a 1099-NEC, they likely consider you as self-employed or an independent contractor. 

This form is used to report non-employee compensation, which typically means the income is considered self-employment income

1. Open or continue your return. Be sure you are logged in for the link in Step 2 to work.
2. Navigate to the self-employed income section:

Since the 1099-NEC is typically used for non-employee compensation, it is often considered self-employment income. Therefore, you would report it on Schedule C. However, if your income from the student teacher support program is not considered self-employment, you might need to report it differently. Reach back out if this is the case with additional details.
