By entering a 1099-MISC, TurboTax creates a Miscellaneous Income Form. This form says that the Income is Other Income. However, the lawyer fees are in Box 10. Box 10 on the Miscellaneous Income Form asks (TurboTax requires) for a Schedule C. Is this an error in TurboTax or on the 1099-MISC? Should the lawyer fees be in a different box? Anyway, TurboTax would not let me submit the return without a Schedule C. I created a dummy Schedule C. I purchased Audit Defense.
