Should we disregard the note on the screen "Do no enter income reported ion Form 1099-MISC"?

If you feel uncomfortable with this method of reporting, you may also report an IRS form 1099-MISC as income that is not self-employment income by following these steps:

 

Follow the steps below to report income on an IRS Form 1099-MISC.

 

  • Select Federal from the left side menu.
  • Click on Wages & Income.
  • Scroll down to Other Common Income.  Click Show more.
  • Click Start / Revisit to the right of 1099-MISC.
  • Enter a description under Describe the reason.
  • Select 'None of these apply' at the screen Does one of these uncommon situations apply?
  • Select 'No' at the screen Did the income involve work.
  • Select 'No' at the screen Did the income involve an intent to earn money?

 

The entry will be reported:

 

  • on line 8z of Schedule 1 of the Federal 1040 tax return, and 
  • on line 8 of the Federal 1040 tax return.

 

View the entries at Tax Tools / Print Center / Print, save or preview this year's return / Include government and TurboTax worksheets.
