I received a 1099-misc from my stock broker. The income is interest income (from lending shares). But, the software wants to report it on Schedule C. How do I fix that?

I received a 1099-misc from my stock broker. The income is interest income (from lending shares). But, the software wants to report it on Schedule C. How do I fix that?

In TurboTax Online, IRS form 1099-MISC box 3 Other Income may be entered as follows: 

 

  1. Down the left side of the screen, click Federal.
  2. Down the left side of the screen, click Wages & Income.
  3. Click the down arrow to the right of Other Common Income.
  4. Click the right of Form 1099-MISC.
  5. At the screen Did you get a 1099-MISC, click Yes.
  6. At the screen Let's enter the income from your 1099-MISC, enter the information.  Click Continue.
  7. At the screen Describe the reason, enter the reason.  Click Continue.
  8. At the screen Do one of these uncommon situations apply, select the situation.
  9. If you select None of these apply, click Continue.
  10. At the screen Did the xxx involve work, select No, it didn't involve work.  Click Continue.
  11. At the screen How often, select Got it in 2024.  Click Continue.
  12. At the screen Did xxx involve an intent to earn money?, click No.

The income should be reported on line 8 of the IRS form 1040 and line 8z of the Schedule 1 Form 1040.
