My employer agrees to continue health insurance at no cost upon retirement, for the duration of the retiring employee's unused sick leave. Generally, the employees have to pay 10% of the cost of insurance but retiring employees electing this extension of insurance benefits are not required to pay the 10%. As a result, I received a 1099-NEC for the imputed income, my 10% of the cost of insurance for 9 months of 2023. TT treats this as business income and wants me to start a Schedule C. The former employer insists the 1099-NEC is the proper reporting form. I clearly am not a business. How do I resolve this in TT?
