Investors & landlords

You simply use the 1099-DIV interview entering the information "as if" you actually received one. 

 

If you look at the actual Schedule B where interest and dividends are reported

you'll see that there's nothing there that indicates whether you received a 1099-DIV or not.  It's just a listing of payers and amounts.
