Investors & landlords
Yes, the IRS will be looking for that 1099-MISC
I suggest you enter the 1099-MISC then enter a subtraction.
Describe the subtraction as "1099-MISC Income reported twice" or something to that effect so that the IRS trace it.
Enter the 1099-MISC and do not link it as self-employment
Now enter a subtraction
Go back to the Wages & Income section
Scroll down to the VERY LAST option "Less Common Income" and click Show more
On this new drop-down list scroll down to the VERY LAST option "Miscellaneous Income" and click Start
Now scroll down to the VERY LAST option "Other reportable income" and click Start
Select YES on the "Any Other Taxable Income?" screen
Type "Income reported twice" and the same amount you entered before but as a NEGATIVE (put - in front of the number)
This NEGATIVE number should show on your 1040 line 8 and cancel the double reporting of that income.
Keep everything with your tax file.
