Retirement tax questions

Great.  I went through the questions and switched to form mode.  I'm at the form an there are only 3 choices for box 1 (Report on line 1 of Form 1040; Other Income; and Back Wages from lawsuit). Neither of these seem to apply.  My situation is a legal settlement from an investment advisor to compensate for losses caused by a mistake they made - the payment had nothing to do with wages or any work performed by me.  The settlement was intended to make me whole.

THANKS AGAIN.  SORRY I'M STRUGGLING WITH THIS. TURBO TAX HAS BEEN SO EASY IN PREVIOUS YEARS I APPRECIATE YOUR HELP.
