Option 2 in TurboTax Deluxe or higher: reporting it via Other Miscellaneous Income is acceptable to the IRS.
- From the left menu, go to Federal and select the first tab, Wages & Income
- Add more income by scrolling down to the last option, Less Common Income, and Show more
- Scroll down to the last option, Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C and Start
- Choose the last option, Other reportable income and Start and Yes
- Enter the applicable description and amount and Continue
- First, enter Form 1099-K as received. It is essential that the full amount be entered.
- For a description, include Form 1099-K and Personal Property Sales
- Next, enter an adjustment to reflect the cost of these items as an offsetting, negative amount up to the amount of the income.
- For the cost description, include Form 1099-K and Cost of Personal Property
- In other words, if the goods cost you $100 and Form 1099-K was for $10 in sales, the maximum cost allowable would be $10.
- First, enter Form 1099-K as received. It is essential that the full amount be entered.
