I don't have a business, what is my business code on form 3514?

[null724]

Got money from a lawsuit settlement. Entered a W-2 and a 1099-MISC, and now I'm being asked for a business code for the Form 3514. No clue what that means. I don't own a business.

Go back and review your 1099-MISC entry. Make sure you told TurboTax the money came from a legal settlement. That will remove the business questions on California Form 3514.

1. Sign in to TurboTax and open or continue your return
2. Search for 1099-misc and select the Jump to link
3. On "1099-MISC Summary" tap EDIT
4. Skip "Let's get the info from your 1099-MISC
5. On "Describe the reason for this 1099-MISC" skip if your description is correct
6. On "Does one of these uncommon situations apply?" select This was money from a lawsuit settlement
