Get your taxes done using TurboTax

In TurboTax Online, report 'difficulty of care' income on form 1040 line 1 as a positive number and line 8 as a negative number.  This gives you credit for earned income yet reduces your taxable income and explains why the income is not taxable.

 

  • Go to Federal / Wages & Income / Your Income / Less Common Income / Miscellaneous Income 1099-A, 1099-C / Other income not already reported on a Form W-2 or Form 1099.
  • At the screen Other Wages Received, select Yes.
  • At the screen Enter Source of Other Earned Income, select Other.
  • At the screen Any Other Earned Income, enter '2014-7' or similar description.
  • Click Done.
  • Select Other Reportable Income and select Yes.
  • Enter the same description and the negative number.
