Form 1099MISC shows $802 but this income is not reported on another form. This income is from my Electric company for my photovoltic system I have. There is no business

If you received a 1099-MISC, you have to include it on your tax return. That doesn't mean you are self-employed. If the amount is listed in box 3, it will be taxable, but you won't need to pay extra taxes on the amount. 

 

That type of income would go to line 8 of Schedule 1. Here is how to enter it in TurboTax:

  1. Log in and continue your return.
  2. Click on Income & Expenses in the upper left corner.
  3. At the bottom of the list you will see, Less Common Income. If you don't see that at first, click on See a list of all income at the bottom of the list.
  4. Click Show more on the right.
  5. At the very bottom, click Start or Revisit next to Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C.
  6. At the bottom of the next list, select Other reportable income.
  7. Answer the next question, Yes.
  8. Enter a description and the amount.
