Investors & landlords

You should enter the royalty income as a form 1099-MISC entry in TurboTax, as royalties. Royalties get reported on schedule E, which is the same schedule rental income gets reported on, so you may see some rental related questions that the IRS requires you to answer. Income reported on a schedule E is not subject to self-employment taxes, so you shouldn't have to deal with that.
