1099-nec

I received a 1099-nec form for a non employee compensation I received from my child’s school district. Her school does not offer a bus so they give us $ to pay for the transportation. When filing, the options for the type of work don’t apply because this want a job. How do I file this?

Here is how to report the 1099-MISC to not create a business:

Navigate to Federal > Wages & Income > Other Common Income> Form 1099-MISC> Start or Revisit
Enter the 1099-MISC as printed, Continue
Describe the reason for this 1099-MISC: "Transportation Rebate" or similar.
Select None of these uncommon situations apply, then continue
Select No, it didn’t involve work that's like your main job and continue
The next screen asks how often you get income from this source. Select only the year of this specific 1099-MISC, 2024.

After entering your 1099-NEC, you will encounter a screen titled "Does one of these uncommon situations apply". Check the box "This is not money earned as an employee or self employed individual; it is from sporadic activity or hobby".

Checking that box will put the income on line 8 of Schedule 1 as "other income".

When I enter the info for the 1099-misc, it only offers the screen to input the payers name, ein number and so on. And box 1. Is for rent, box 2 royalties, box 3 other income. Am I missing something?
