If you received 1099-NEC for something other then self-employment income, then please follow the steps below:

  1. Click on Tax Home from the Left side Menu.
  2. Click on Wages & Income from the main screen.
  3. Scroll Down till you see the section for "Other Common Income". Within this section, you will find Form 1099-NEC and you can enter the information accordingly.

 

When you use this method, it will not ask you about any business information.
