Received a 1099 MISC for a state surplus, one time refund. NOT from self employment which is how Turbo Tax wants to categorize it. How do I report it?

Are you referring to the Minnesota Tax Rebate Payment?  If so, the Minnesota payments are taxable income on the Federal 1040 tax return but not subject to self-employment income.

The payment is not taxable income on the Minnesota state income tax return.  Follow these steps to report the payment reported on IRS form 1099-MISC.

• Down the left side of the screen, click Federal.
• Down the left side of the screen, click Wages & Income.
• Click Show more to the right of Less Common Income.
• Select Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A.
• Select Other reportable Income.
• As a description enter MN Direct Tax Rebate Payment.

In the Minnesota tax return, remove the income at the screen Minnesota Tax Rebate Payment.
