Form 1099 Misc?

[bisharoabdi538]

I am adding form 1099 misc because the state sent me a rebate payment that was one time. it is asking me questions on self employment and new line of work which I don't have.

Delete that 1099 and the Schedule C that was started.

Then re-enter the 1099-MISC.   Under Other Common Income, select Start or Revisit next to Form 1099-MISC.  Enter your 1099-MISC info on the Let's get the info from your 1099-MISC screen and click Continue.  

1. On the Describe the reason for this 1099-MISC screen, enter a description (one-time rebate).
2. Select None of these apply on the Does one of these uncommon situations apply? screen.
3. Select No, it didn’t involve work like my main job on the Did the involve work that's like your main job? screen.
4. Select I got it only in 2024 on the How often did you get income for? screen.
5. Select No, it didn’t involve intent to earn money on the Did the work involve an intent to earn money? screen.
6. Select No on the Do you have another 1099-MISC? screen.

Answering differently to any of these questions will imply self-employment and generate Schedule C.   Answering the questions as above will report the income on Line 8 of Form 1040 as Other Income (not SE).
