How do I enter a 1099 misc that is not for income? It is part of my husband's retirement package. The system keeps wanting to lable it self employment??

OTHER INCOME 1099-MISC

Click Federal

Click Wages & Income

Click “See All Income” if needed

Scroll down (PAST SELF-EMPLOYMENT) to “Other Common Income”

Click “Show more”

Scroll down to “Form 1099-MISC”

Click Start

Enter the 1099-MISC and Continue

On the “Describe the reason for this 1099-MISC” screen enter something like “part of retirement package” and Continue

Select “None of these apply” and Continue

Select “No, it didn’t involve work like main job” and continue through the interview selecting the appropriate answers

The amount from the 1099-MISC will be reported as Other income on the 1040 line 7a, not as Self-employment
