I am presuming that she did not receive a W-2. So, if you want to go down the mis-classified employee route, you would file and SS-8, then Form 4852 - substitute for W-2, then Form 8919 for an employees share of payroll taxes.
Conversely, you may decide that she was in fact an independent contractor, and file a schedule C. Reporting her "wages" as the gross proceeds.

If you do both....that is a Substitute W-2 and a Form 8919, Lacerte seems to think they are two different incomes so the 1040 reflects the amount of income twice. Or am I doing something wrong?
