I received money as my deceased mother's Personal Representative. I received a 1099-Misc which I entered into TurboTax Deluxe, but it keeps doing a Schedule C and trying to set it up as a self employment business and charging me self employment taxes. How to I correctly enter this income as just additional income?
You'll need to sign in or create an account to connect with an expert.
After you enter the 1099-MISC, the answers to the follow up questions determine if you are required to file a Schedule C- Personal Representatives are not unless you do it professionally. Edit the 1099-MISC and follow the entries as below:
Does one of these uncommon situations apply? (None of these apply)
No it did not involve work like my regular job
How often did you get income? ONE YEAR ONLY
Intent to earn money? NO
