How do I enter robinhood's deposit matching?

[ebrown014]

I got $20 in deposit matching from a Robinhood incentive program last year. Turbotax is pushing me to file it as self employment income. The questions it then asks about the income are irrelevant, I didn't earn this money through work. How am I supposed to enter this?

If this is on a 1099-MISC in the consolidated broker's statement then you can enter it this way :

• Down the left side of the screen, click Federal.
• In the center of the screen, click Income & expenses.
• On the screen Your income and expenses, scroll all the way down to the last section, Less Common Income.
• Click the Start or Update button for the last topic, Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C.
• On the next screen, Let's Work on Any Miscellaneous Income, scroll down and click the Start or Update button for the last topic, Other reportable income.
• The next screen asks, Did you receive any other taxable income. Click Yes.
• On the next screen, Other Taxable Income, enter a description and the amount. Click Continue.
• On the next screen click Done.

The income will be reported on Schedule 1 line 8 with the description that you entered.
