1099-MISC to cover travel costs

How do I file a 1099-MISC form with Box 3 filed when the money is for a reimbursement - not actual income, so I don't have to pay taxes on it? (Received a lump-sum for travel for a research conference.)

1099-MISC to cover travel costs

If You received a 1099-MISC you do need to include it in your tax return and it's fully taxable. If it was a reimbursement from your employer, it should have been included in your W-2. However, some employers issue a separate form to report travel reimbursement.
