Get your taxes done using TurboTax

It depends, if the miscellaneous income was recorded in Box 3, you will enter this as Other Common Income.

Here's how to enter a 1099-MISC with income in box 3 in TurboTax so that it is reported as "other income" instead of as business income. 

1. In the Search box type "1099-misc" (without the quotes), then click the link that says "Jump to 1099-misc."
2. The first screen asks "Did you get a 1099-MISC?" Click Yes.
3. On the next screen enter the information from the 1099-MISC form, then click Continue.

TurboTax will now ask a series of questions about the 1099-MISC income. Answer as follows, even if some of the answers aren't true.

• "Describe the reason for this 1099-MISC." - Enter a short description such as "contract fee." Click Continue. You will see this description used in some of the subsequent questions, but it will not appear on your tax return.
• "Does one of these uncommon situations apply?" - Select the last choice, "None of these apply," and click Continue.
• "Did the contract fee involve work that's like your main job?" - Select No and click Continue.
• "How often did you get income for contract fee?" - "I got it in 2022" will already be checked. Don't check any of the other boxes. Just click Continue.
• "Did the contract fee involve an intent to earn money?" - Select No and click Continue.
