The screenshot below shows the search box and the Jump to schedule c link in TurboTax Desktop.

This should also work in TurboTax Online. Or you can follow the instructions below:

If you're self-employed, it's likely you need to fill out an IRS Schedule C to report how much money you made or lost in your business.

We'll automatically complete Schedule C for you when you add your self-employment income in TurboTax (usually Form 1099-NEC or 1099-MISC). It gets attached to your Form 1040, which we'll also handle for you.

If you need Schedule C to report a 1099-NEC or 1099-MISC, search for 1099-NEC or 1099-misc and select the Jump to link. We'll ask questions to find out if your 1099 income needs to go on Schedule C.
