It is IMPORTANT to indicate what type of 1099....there are multiple kinds taht all have their own numbering!!

IF it is a 1099-DIV form  (most likely)

You enter those on the Wages&Income page

There is a specific entry line for 1099-DIV forms, down in the Interest & Dividends section

Capital gains distributions that are reported in box 2a of Form 1099-DIV are transferred to Schedule D line 13.  

 

TurboTax will do this automatically.  All you need to do is to enter the information from Form 1099-DIV.
