Yes, you will need to enter the 1099-K as the IRS will  be expecting it as part of your income.  However, after you enter the 1099-K, you will just back the income out since you did not actually make any money.

 

To enter the 1099-K and then back it the amount (all of it) that was not income, here are the steps in TurboTax Online:

 

  1. Within your tax return, navigate to Federal > Wages & Income > Other Common Income > Form 1099-K
  2. Choose Add a 1099-K
  3. Enter the information from the 1099-K
  4. Check the box that says, This amount in box 1a is too high or includes some personal transactions
  5. Enter the amount that should not be included.
