Please delete the 1099-MISC you entered and re-enter it as follows. 

Sign into your account and return. Click the “Pick up where I left off” bar

Click on Federal on the left side-bar, then Wages & Income along the top.

When you get to the Income section, Scroll down to Other Common Income and Click Show more

Click Start or Revisit for Form 1099-MISC

Enter a description for the non-work income, such as “Fringe Benefit” for the reason and Continue

Click “None of these apply.” at the bottom of the list for “Does one of these uncommon situations apply? And Continue

Answer “No, it didn’t involve work like my main job.” on the next screen and Continue.

Click the year you got the reward and Continue (if you received this income for more than 2 years, the IRS will consider it as self-employment)

Answer “No, it didn’t involve an intent to earn money.” on the next screen and continue.

Do you have another 1099-MISC? Click No and Continue

Click Done.

The income will show as a line item on line 21 of Schedule 1 of the 1040 and not as Self-employment.

You can preview the 1040 including schedule 1 by clicking on Tax Tools then Tools then View Tax Summary. Look to the left and click on Preview My 1040. Scroll down past the 1040 to Schedule ! if you have entered anything requiring schedule 1.
If you are asking about entering something on Schedule 1, what do you want to enter?

I received a 1099Misc that is not for income, it is for a taxable fringe benefit. Along with the 1099 I received instructions to enter it on Schedule 1 line 21, but when I enter it turbo tax counts it as self employment income.

What box on the 1099-MISC is the income entered in?

Thanks for your answer. It makes sense to me, however Turbo Tax kept counting it as self-employment income until I reduced the frequency to a single year, rather than 2 years.

Right, the IRS may question recurring income, so be sure it isn't self-employment, and keep whatever you need to show that with your tax file. Thank you for using TurboTax.
