Schedule 1, Line 8 includes the following.
See IRS Instructions for 1040, page 23.
My best guess as to why I'm seeing this is my Line 22b which was auto populated to report "Lawsuit settlement". This money was reported last year but I need to report it again this year perhaps? Full amount of the settlement?
Yes, if you received a law suit settlement again in 2021 you must report the income. This would not include any income from the law suite that was received and taxed in 2020.
Enter your legal settlement by following the steps in the article below.
No settlement was received in 2021 which is why I'm confused. I created a new post for this here.
If you scroll down on that Other Income Statement, you will see that TurboTax has included an entry from last year's taxes and it is wanting you to put in a dollar amount. You can just put in 0.00 at the box at the top, but I chose to delete the entire form, as long as you have nothing on it.
