Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Enter your W-2 as shown.

 

When you enter your 1099-Misc, you can indicate it is a lawsuit settlement, so it isn't counted as 'self-employment' income for Schedule C. 

 

Then, in Wages & Income, scroll down the topic list to the very last item, 'Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C'.

 

On the next page, scroll all the way down to 'Other Reportable Income'.

 

Under 'Other Taxable Income' enter a description of Lawsuit Settlement Adjustment and the amount on your 1099-Misc as a negative amount.
