Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Is the 1099-Misc reporting the income in Box 1 as Rental Income?  It should be reported in Box 3 as Other Income.  You could ask your employer to issue you a corrected Form 1099-Misc.

 

However, if you can't get a corrected form, you could enter the income as follows:

 

  • Under Income, scroll all the way down to Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C
  • On the next screen, scroll all the way down to Other Reportable Income
  • Any Other Taxable Income? Yes
  • Ignore the message about not entering 1099-Misc, and enter a description and amount.

 

Save any documentation that this income is for a Home Office Reimbursement.
