    There is no specific area in TurboTax or any software to enter Form 1099-S. The lawsuit settlement will be entered as other reportable income by following these steps:

     

    1. Go to Income & Expenses
    2. scroll down the page to the last item Less Common Income
    3. select Miscellaneous income
    4. then from the list select Other reportable income.  
    5. you will have to enter the amount you received plus a short description.
