Don't override. Instead, enter your 1099-MISC this way:
- First, enter your 1099-MISC exactly as it appears in your hand.
- On the screen Describe the Reason for this 1099-MISC, say UAW legal service benefit.
- On the next screen check "none"
- On the next screen, check "No, it doesn't involve work like your main job."
- Check that you got it in 2017.
- Check NO, it didn't involve an intent to make money.
This will place your income on line 21 of your tax return, and there will be no Schedule C.
See the screenshots below. It's always better to use the interview entry points than to override the forms.
