1099Misc

I have a 1099Misc for paid family leave and Turbo tax desktop is putting it in as a business.  I've tried deleting it and reentering it but I get the same results.  I've seen in responses for prior years that a question is asked if there is an intent to earn money and to answer NO but that question doesn't come up.  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

The first screen you should see in the Form 1099-MISC entry section is a template on which you enter your Form 1099-MISC information:

 

On a later screen you will indicate if the work is like your main job:

 

Then you would indicate that you only received the money in 2023:

 

 

Then you will see the question regarding an intent to earn money:
