What do I do with this question on my tax form - You entered income shown on 1099 NEC, Box 1, but you haven't told us if it's from tips or overtime compensation. Please go back to the Your 1099-NEC or 1099-MISC Income screen and review if any of the Other Income is from tips or overtime for the following:**** My income is for professional services so there are no tips or overtime to declare on the 1099-NEC screen and I can't just check a box saying this. What do I do?

    Hello CMcQ,

    You will need to go back to the 1099-NEC and indicate Tip and Overtime are not included in the income reported in Box 1. To do this, select: Income > 1099-NEC, select to Edit this form. Continue through to the screen that follows the 1099-NEC entry, asking about Tips and Overtime. If they are not included in your Box 1 of that form, select No for each and then Save and Continue.
