See above answer. Ask for a corrected 1099-MISC. If that doesn't happen then you can either file a paper return with the explanation given above, or enter the 1099-MISC as reported, then make an adjustment in the Other Income section of Schedule 1 as a negative sum. In this way, the reporting of the 1099-MISC form is satisfied, but the effect will be zero.
