Not sure what the original posters issue was for.
In my case the 1099-Misc was from my brokerage for a payment from an ETN that I had owned. It was not income from a business or an employer.
I think you are missing the point of the original issue. There is no way to select "other" in the guided screens. They left it off for some reason. Why? You have to go to the tax forms to select "other".
I hope that helps.
Thanks for your time and sorry if it was not clear what the issue was.
