Investors & landlords

As a landlord, I received the 1099 MISC for my tenant's rental assistance payment in 2021. The amount I received is in box 3 (other) not box 1 (rent). So when completing my return do I enter it in the income section, or when I get to the "rentals" section an list as rent collected? Problem is, also, that if I try to enter it a rent in the "rental" section, because it's in box 3, not 1, turbo tax is not taking it. Does it matter? Does it get taxed differently?

 

Please help, thanks!
