If the Form 1099-MISC is for a summer internship only, you can enter it as described in the earlier post from last year by KrisD15.

 

To enter income from a Form 1099-MISC that is not from working, in TurboTax Online, enter Form 1099-MISC information in the section to which it most closely pertains. In Wages and Income, there are several locations where you can enter a Form 1099-MISC.

 

If you enter Form 1099-MISC in the Other Common Income section, at the screen "Does one of these uncommon situations apply?", a list of options appears from which you can select that includes reasons for Form 1099-MISC other than self-employed income.

 

In the alternative, you can enter the amount under Other Reportable Income. In TurboTax Online:

 

  1. Go to Wages and Income
  2. Scroll down to Less Common Income
  3. Go to Miscellaneous Income
  4. Select Other Reportable Income and follow the prompts. Enter a description for the reason for the payment.
