Error message for Form 1099-Misc with other income linked to Schedule C

I have a client with a 1099-Misc where the amount is reported as other income. It is actually SE income, so I have linked it to a Schedule C. When I finished the return on Monday, there were no error messages. Now it says "A link to Schedule C should not be included when the MWP qualifying as Difficulty of Care payments exclusion box has been checked". I assume this is just a weird programming thing in ProSeries that will be fixed. Anyone know where the box to which it refers is located in the software? I can't find it. I know I have ways around the problem, but I would like the software to do things correctly.

Me too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We're currently working on this fix, if there's an update available feel free to test this out.

Some of our product features are connected to TurboTax functionality, so if you see a fix here it will hopefully reflect in the TurboTax program as well.

"MWP qualifying as Difficulty of Care payments exclusion box has been checked"

I know the W2 has a new checkbox for this, I dont see it for the 1099MSIC.

You sure you dont have a W2 that the statutory employee box, page 2, Part I (would create a Sch C) and the MWP box, Page 2 Part VI (would create that error) got checked down near the bottom of the W2 worksheet?

I am positive I do not have that situation. This is specifically on the 1099-Misc. It wasn't an error on Monday but is today.

Same exact issue here. I was in the client yesterday and no issue. Go to finalize this morning and this error.

I deleted the 1099 MISC and put the income on 1099 NEC and got rid of the error - what a waste of time.

on the 1099-MISC and 1099-NEC worksheet, there is a check box for MWP. Are you sure it's not accidentally checked on your return?

That box is NOT Checked. I even tried deleting the 1099 and reentering it. I only completed FEIN, Payor name, Box 3 amount and Linked it to the Schedule C. It has to be a weird programmiing error!!

Looks like this is a hiccup with the last release.
We're looking into it and will keep this thread updated.

Hi, how do we override the MWP 1099 S error. I see all the posts and yes this error started due to the release. Does Intuit monitor these errors? I can't figure out how to post it directly on the Schedule C. Do I need to provide the payer's TIN when reporting income for the client on their Schedule C. My client makes the 1099 income from one payer? Appreciate your responses.

Hi - regarding the MWP error - I solved it by deleting the 1099 MISC and putting the info on a 1099

Stupid question #1,253,668 - why are so many people entering 1099s into the software? They aren’t like a W-2 - they don’t get transmitted with the returns. Just enter the total revenues on schedule C or wherever the income belongs and move on with life.

I am experiencing the same problem. Error message received: "A link to schedule C should not be linked when the MWP qualifying as difficulty of care payments exclusion box has been checked."

Turbotax, can you get on this ASAP? I've got an underpayment of taxes issue (first time self-employed - oops) and the longer I wait apparently the more I'll have to pay.

WOW people. I feel like I am looking at Facebook. I came here looking for an answer to my question and most of these answers just chastise me for the way I choose to prepare returns. If you don't have an answer to my direct question, just scroll on by!

This is a known issue that was introduced with the last release. I would recommend just entering the 1099MISC directly to the Sch C and deleting the 1099MISC. Same bottom line and the 1099MISC isn't transmitted to the IRS UNLESS there is withholding.
