Reporting Miscellaneous Income without a 1099-MISC

Since this is not a business, and there is no 1099, I would put the $250 into Line 21 of Schedule 1.  Do this by going to personal income/less common income/miscellaneous income/other reportable income. Click that you had taxable income.  You should get to a page with 2 entries to enter data. For the "Description" enter something like School Psych Study.  Then enter the amount.  Check Line 21 of Schedule 1 to be sure the value went to the desired location in the return.

In TurboTax follow these steps to put the income in:

• Federal
• Wages and Income
• Less common income
• Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C
• Other Reportable Income
• Describe the reason for the income

This income will go on Schedule 1, Line 8
