Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Assuming the payments are showing in box 3 "Other Income" on your 1099-Misc, on the "Income & Expenses" tab scroll down to "Other Common Income"

 

1.  Identify as Short-term disability

2.  Enter as "not your main job"

3.  You didn't do this "to earn money" 

4.  You "received in 2019"  

 

Following these steps, this should not show up in self-employment.  

 

If this is not the case, please clarify how this income is reported to you.
