Investors & landlords

It appears you are using TurboTax Premier desktop/CD. If your 1099-misc has income in box 1, it is rental income. Even if this income is from renting farm land to a farmer, it is a cash payment of rental income. This type of income is to be reported in TurboTax under Rental Properties and Royalties (schedule E).

To remove your incorrect entries, click into the forms mode using the forms tab in the upper right hand corner of your screen, find form 4835 which is Farm Rental in TurboTax and click Delete Form in the bottom row. Farm Rental is for when you receive a percentage of the crop as payment for rental income.

If you do not operate a farm business, do the same as above with schedule F which is called Farm Income and Expenses in TurboTax. Farm Income and Expenses is for when you operate a farm business.
