I receive royalty checks from my deceased father in law and Mother in law. My wife is deceased so I am a beneficiary of a beneficiary. One is placed in the box 3, Other Income, and the other in box 2, royalty. The total amount is less than $1,000. Do I have to claim that as income or is it an inheritance? Where do I enter this information? It is in a 1099 -Misc.
