Instead of using the steps at the bottom of the TurboTax help article that take you to the section to enter the negative adjustment for your housing allowance, try following these steps instead:
- In the Income section of your return, scroll to Less Common Income.
- Click Start or Update beside Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C.
- Scroll to the bottom of the Let's Work on Any Miscellaneous Income screen and select Start next to Other reportable income.
- Answer Yes, and on the Any Other Taxable Income screen, type Clergy Housing Allowance in the description and enter it as a negative number (precede it with a minus sign, for example -10,000).
This will report the housing allowance as a negative adjustment on Form 1040 Schedule 1 line 8z.
