How do we post miscellaneous income when no 1099-misc is to be supplied?

If your miscellaneous income is not self-employment income, enter it as other reportable income. Follow these steps:

Sign into your TurboTax account.
Select Federal from the left side menu.
On the Wages and income screen, scroll down to Add more income. If you don’t see this, scroll down to Less Common Income and select Show more.
Select Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C and Start.
On the Let’s Work on Any Miscellaneous Income screen, select Other reportable income and Start.
On the Any Other Taxable Income? screen, select Yes.
On the Other Taxable Income screen, enter a description and amount, then Continue.
On the Other Miscellaneous Income Summary screen, confirm the entry and select Done.

To check the entry, Preview your 1040. Other reportable income is reflected on Schedule 1, line 10.

If the income is from self employment (independent contractor) please see the following TurboTax FAQ: How do I report income from self-employment?

Why do you people keep posting these "expert" replies assuming we are using the on-line version of TT?

The question was for the downloaded version AND NO THEY ARE NOT THE SAME!!!!!!!!!! I have to conclude that Intluit is intending to do away with the download & CD versions next year. Nothing you responded with corresponds to the download version. The download version does not have an "add more income" entry. Furthermore, step-by-step for 1099-misc requires entries taken from that very form. Their is no selection for entering data not taken from the misc form. I could always fill it out guessing what goes in what box, I suppose.

Most TurboTax users, about 90%, are completing their tax return with the online editions. We have no way to know which edition that is being used if the user posting the question does not select their product when entering their question.

For the desktop editions -
