I received a Form 1099-MISC for paid family leave payments. What form is this type of income reported?

The Turbotax site is not letting me e-file.  It is asking me to report this income on a schedule c, but this is not business income. is that correct?

I received a Form 1099-MISC for paid family leave payments. What form is this type of income reported?

To enter a 1099-MISC for Paid Family Leave:

  1. Open your return.
  2. Click on Federal tab, then Wages & Income.
  3. Scroll down to Other Common Income - Tax refunds, 1099-G, 1099-NEC, 1099-MISC, 1099-K, Click on down arrow.
  4. Click on 1099-MISC Start/Revisit.
  5. Enter info from 1099-MISC form (Payer, Federal ID #, Box 3 amount, etc.), Continue
  6. Enter Description for reason for 1099-MISC; perhaps something like "Paid Family Leave", Continue.  
  7. On Does one of these common situation apply? page, Click on None of these apply.  Continue.  
  8. Did the Paid Family Leave involve work that's like your main job?  Answer No, Continue.
  9. When asked about frequency of payment, Select 2023.  Continue.
  10. When asked "Did (description) involve an intent to earn money?" answer No (that is, it is not earned income and therefore not subject to self-employment tax).  Continue.
  11. Click on No that you don't have another 1099-MISC (unless you do, of course), Continue
  12. You should land on 1099-MISC Summary page.
