DMarkM1, related to same question about patent royalties under 1235 reported on 1099-Misc; when I input 1099 information in TT it requires me to designate it as investment income or self-employment income. In one case it asks for location of rental property and starts Schedule E and other it starts Schedule C, both of which are incorrect and triggers unnecessary/wrong paperwork and potentially other taxes. I understand the concept of adding and subtraction out in other income, but I can't find the right path in software to do this. Can you clarify on how to add in TT so that 1099-misc information is properly "computer checked". What is required for correct computer check. I will then add the income on schedule D per code 1235. If I manually do this on line 21 will it be correctly computer checked?
