To enter your 1099-MISC:

- Enter your information.
- When asked what the 1099-MISC is for, type in 'class action lawsuit settlement'.
- When asked 'Does one of these uncommon situations apply?' check 'This money was from a lawsuit settlement'.
- You will need to know if the 1099-MISC monies were for back wages or not. Wages are taxed differently and will affect your refund (or amount due). You may need to contact your attorney if you do not know this information.
