I was out on Paid Family Leave last year for 3 months - I received a 1099-Misc as taxable, non-wage income. I live in NJ and work in NY. My 1099-misc has a NJ line etered on line 17. Is this taxable at the state level?
Also entering this form also automatically starts a schedule C. Is this correct?
How should I enter the 1099-MISC properly in my case?
@deee
Click Federal
Click Wages & Income
Click “See All Income” if needed
Scroll down (PAST SELF-EMPLOYMENT) to “Other Common Income”
Click “Show more”
Scroll down to “Form 1099-MISC”
Click Start
Enter the 1099-MISC and Continue
On the “Describe the reason for this 1099-MISC” screen enter something like “Paid Family Leave” and Continue
Select “None of these apply” and Continue
Select “No, it didn’t involve work like main job” and continue through the interview selecting the appropriate answers.
The amount from the 1099-MISC will be reported as Other income on the 1040 line 7a, not as Self-employment
How do we make it so the other income from that 1099- misc from the benefit payment is not included in the NJ filing ? Mine is showing as other coming as a separate line item in the NJ review- which seems like it being taxed on it and from what’s I’ve read I should be.
