Business & farm

Do not enter the 1099-G form itself. Instead simply add the dollar amount as a cash payment you received when completing your Form 4835 fir farm rental.  The document itself is not required to be entered because that is a convenience.  As long as the income is reported on the tax return that is the only requirement.

 

If you already entered the 1099-G, delete that and enter the income directly as 'cash' for example. Select that the money was paid to one of  you, it's not important which one is selected.  

 

Note: SMLLC IRS 

If an LLC is owned by husband and wife in a non-community property state, the LLC should file as a partnership. LLCs owned by a husband and wife are not eligible to be "qualified joint ventures" (which can elect not be treated as partnerships) because they are state law entities. For more information see Election for Husband and Wife Unincorporated Businesses.

 

As noted by @Opus 17 if you are in a community property state you can choose a disregarded entity and file a Schedule C for each of you by splitting income and expense.
