Question

I received a 1099-NEC but am not self employed. It is income from SDSU for being part of the IFC. How can I enter into turbotax but not as self employment?

    To enter the 1099 NEC as non-self-employment income take the following steps:

    • Income
    • 1099-NEC under Other Common Income
    • Enter the information from the 1099-NEC
    • Continue through and say the work does NOT involve work that is like your main job
    • Select the years you received it
    • Say no, to did this involve an intent to earn money

    I had done this approach but the questions continued to ask about self employment.  I also ended up needing to owe federal taxes against the $750.

    Did it create a Schedule C?  If not, then it did not report it as self-employment.  If you are using the online version you can select Tools>>Tax Tools>>Delete a form to see if you have a Schedule C in your return. 

     

    Making it not self-employment does not make it not taxable.  It is still taxable income and would be taxed at your ordinary tax rate.
