The Pro product has 1099-NEC currently but the Basic product does not have it listed. 

Please don't forget to add it to the 'Where do I Enter?' option.

Im sure they'll get it included at some point, but you really dont need it, just enter their income in on Sch C, yout don't need to enter the actual 1099.

The only problem with not including the 1099-NEC and just adding that income on the Schedule C is that you now risk getting a letter from the IRS asking you to explain the lack of it based on their document matching. Your total income may be correct, but they do not know that.

If you go to the left and look under "Common Forms" you will find the "1099-NEC Wks" It does not show up on "Where Do I Enter" but it is in the program.

For my clients who received a 1099-MISC in 2019 with Non-Employee Compensation listed in Box 7, the 1099-NEC is being automatically pulled into the return waiting for dollar figures to be entered.


I believe you are using ProSeries Professional. That version of the software has it included. But their Basic version (what i have been using) does NOT have it available.

I'm requesting that they add this form to the Basic version because I know my clients will come to me this year and have that form for me to enter.

I would think it's a simple request. So just add it!

Hi, in Proseries Basic, go to Forms, Find Forms and look for 1099 NEC and you will be able to work on it. But you are right they have not added to the Where do I enter option. But they also fixed on the Schedule C, Now it says NEC or 1099. Little by little. Do not worry. But I was just like you are. Hope this helps. Have a great day

Thank you for this information.

I find that doing a search doesn't actually find the correct form but goes instead to 1099-A, but in the first section (bar moved all the way to the left) that 1099-NEC is listed on the last column.

At least it's a way to find the form... now if they would just add on the 'Income Checklist' tab under 1099-MISC that would be perfect.

Thank you again for sharing.
