Received a 1099-MISC from WV Workforce. For the WV Job Jumpstart Program. It was a One Time Payment ,how do I enter this into my amended return?

Workforce WV Unemployment Compensation Division offered this program called the WV Job jumpstart Program that let people apply and see if they were eligible to receive a one time payment. I’m not sure what this would be categorized as, but when I try to include this form on my amended return TurboTax wants to put it in the self employed category. I’m not self employed, neither do I have my own business. I’m confused on where/how I should enter this form.

The easiest way is to delete and enter as Less Common income.

1. Open your return and go to Wages & Income
2. Scroll down to Less Common Income and select Start next to Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C
3. On the Let’s Work on Any Miscellaneous Income screen, select Start next to Other reportable income and click Start
4. Enter WV Job jumpstart Program as description and the amount.
