How do I show that money on a 1099MISC I received was for an award my business won and that I transferred it all directly to the business so shouldn't be personal income?

How do I show that money on a 1099MISC I received was for an award my business won and that I transferred it all directly to the business so shouldn't be personal income?

If it is income for your business, it should be reported on your Schedule C.  When you enter it, indicate that the income involves your work and TurboTax will transfer it to your business return (Schedule C).  

 

 

Open your return and type 1099-misc in the Search box. Select the Jump to link. This will take you directly to the section where you can enter your 1099-MISC. You’ll also be able to enter any cash, personal checks, credit card payments, or cryptocurrency (Form 1099-K) related to your self-employment.
