How to you claim a 1099-Misc when the money you received was not income but a reimbursement for medical expenses? (I used emergency hospital services overseas, had to pay out of pocket, and my insurance reimbursed me)
When I filed it as a 1099-Misc and add the info for box 6 "Medical and Health Care Payments" it only advances me to screens about my business - which I do not have. And it highly taxes it. There are no other options.
I read through other questions and it was suggested to list this as "less common income" however it clearly states there NOT TO INCLUDE 1099-MISC there.
Surely there is a way to report this and not have it taxed as it was a reimbursement, not income??
Thank you!
