If you work through the questions after you enter your 1099-MISC form in TurboTax, it will apply the correct reporting based on your responses. However, you can enter the income manually as "other income" if you feel the program chose a schedule C reporting in error by following these instructions:
1. Go to the "Federal" section of TurboTax
2. Click on "Income and Expenses"
3. Find "Less Common Income" and choose the last entry "Miscellaneous Income"
4. On the next screen, "Miscellaneous Income" choose the last entry "Other Reportable Income"
5. Enter a description for your entry, and enter the taxable amount you want to exclude from income as a negative number
