1099 form

[dlv0129]

My husband received a 1099-MISC. When I enter it is the place a 1099-MISC goes, it is entered as income and he is charged a self-employed tax. This was sent from PNC Investments so definitely isn't self employed income.  On the form it is listed as a credit adustment for substitute payments. How do I enter this if not income? It is for $600
