If you don't own the property, you still may enter the 1099 MISC information as if you did own the property. You may not own the property but you do own an interest in it or you wouldn't receive the payment.
Enter it as James G1 suggests in his post above.
- Down the left side of the screen, click Federal.
- Down the left side of the screen, click on Wages & income.
- Scroll down to Other common income. Click Show more.
- Click Start / Revisit to the right of Form 1099-MISC.
- Enter the information from the form.
If you did not receive a 1099 MISC, you may enter in the following manner.
- Click Federal > Wages & Income>all income>
- Go to the last selection, Miscellaneous Income and click Start
- Go to the last option, Other reportable income and click Start
- When it asks, "Any other reportable income?" say yes and then type in a description and the amount to report it on your tax return. Here you will type in Royalty Payment on Property i don't own and the amount.
