my 1099-MISC is from COLA retirement, not from self employment. Where do I enter this purpose? I can't find it

If it is reported in Box 3 of the 1099-MISC enter it under

 

  • Income
  • 1099-MISC and Other Common Income
  • Income from Form 1099-MISC
  • Type "Retirement Cola" for "Describe the reason for this 1099-MISC" or something similar
  • NO, not like work
  • Only received in 2024
  • NO intent to make money

 

These questions/answers are TurboTax Questions, your answers are not part of your tax return. 

This will force the program to report the 1099-MISC as "Other Income" and Not Self-Employment income.
