This is a claim of right repayment. There are two different ways to claim this. One way is to claim the income as a deduction on your 2018 return. This method will work well if your 2018 income is significantly more than your 2017 income (putting you in a higher tax bracket than when you were originally taxed on the income), and you are already itemizing deductions this year.
The other way to claim is probably more beneficial: claiming a credit. Using this method, you calculate the difference between what you paid in tax last year compared to what you would have paid had this income not been included in your 2017 tax return.
To claim this using either method in TurboTax, please note these instructions provided by Critter#2: https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/7016599
