FMLA on 1099-Misc

[cpoconn7]

Reviewing a past post on-line and item 13 is not an option. I'm getting the FMLA pay showing up as SE income. How do I enter?

To enter your Form 1099-MISC paid family leave information in TurboTax Online: 

1. Open TurboTax Online
2. Select  Tax Home in the left pane
3. Select the dropdown to the right of Wages & Income
4. Select  Pick up where you left off, Review/Edit or the edit pencil
5. On the Great! We've got your income info page, select the dropdown to the right of Other Common Income -- Tax refunds, 1099-G, 1099-NEC, 1099-MISC, 1099-K
6. Select Start to the right of Form 1099-MISC
7. Select Yes on the Did you get a 1099-MISC? page
8. On thEnter the information from your 1099-MISC on the Let's enter the income from your 1099-MISC page, then select Continue
9. On the Describe the reason for this 1099-MISC screen, enter Paid Family Leave, then select  Continue
10. On the Do one of these uncommon situations apply? screen, select the bullet next to None of these apply, then select Continue
11. On the Did the Paid Family Leave involve work that's like [your] main job? page, select the bullet next to No, it didn't involve work like [your] main job, then select Continue
12. On the How often did [you] get income for Paid Family Leave? page, answer appropriately, then select Continue
13. On the Did the Paid Family Leave involve an intent to earn money? page, select the bullet next to No, it didn't involve an intent to earn money.  This indicates to the program that this wasn't self-employment income, so self-employment tax won't be triggered.  Select Continue
14. On the Your 1099-MISC summary page, select Done, unless you have more Forms 1099-MISC to enter

On step 12, you should select only the year of this specific 1099-MISC, 2024. After that, step 13 should allow you to answer "No, it didn't involve the intent to earn money."

Thanks Mindy, that worked. It's a little confusing the way it's worded.
