1099-MISC that is not for outside work

You can report it as 'Other Income'. If the amount is reported in Box 3 (this would be the right box), you should follow the steps below to enter it without a self employment issue.

 

1. Report it as 'Other' income on your return.
2. Other Income:
   1. Open your return.
   2. Go to Wages & Income > Scroll to the bottom under Less Common Income 
   3. Select Start (or Update) for Miscellaneous Income.
   4. Select Other reportable Income > Enter a description and the amount

This is fine for entering the income. But there is no place to report the state and federal taxes paid.  How do I do that?
