I cannot test on a Mac, but the programs are similar.
There are several sections to enter a 1099-MISC.
I think you entered it under Self-Employment, but you need to scroll down past that to "Other Common Income"
Please follow these directions carefully. They should take you to a different set of screens to enter the 1099-MISC.
Afterwords, you will need to delete the original entry.
It's confusing, but I think you'll find it, be sure to click "Show all income" if needed to open all the options.
You might needs to answer a bunch of Yes/No questions first, so try not to get side-tracked with those.
Click Federal
Click Wages & Income
Click “See All Income” if needed
Scroll down (PAST SELF-EMPLOYMENT) to “Other Common Income”
Click “Show more”
Scroll down to “Form 1099-MISC”
Click Start
Enter the 1099-MISC and Continue
On the “Describe the reason for this 1099-MISC” screen type in something like “Re-reimbursement” and Continue
Select “None of these apply” and Continue
Select “No, it didn’t involve work like main job” and continue through the interview selecting the appropriate answers for a one-time payment.
The amount from the 1099-MISC will be reported as Other income on the 1040 line 7a, not as Self-employment
