My SIL was severely injured in an accident. There were 2 fundraisers done to raise money for his medical expenses. He should be receiving 1099’s because the funds were withdrawn from Gofundme and PayPal accounts. Where do you enter that they were gifts received (all smaller amounts) so that they are not considered part of his income?
You'll need to sign in or create an account to connect with an expert.
First, please enter form 1099-MISC as is and follow the interview questions. Most likely, box 3 of the form will be filled out. TurboTax will ask you to describe the reason for the form, you can indicate the fundraising reasons there. Then, you would go to:
You will see that you will have two same figures on Schedule 1, line 21 : one as positive number (that's your 1099-Misc) and 2nd as a negative number, making the income nontaxable, but still reported on your tax return.
How to look up Schedule 1?
If you are working on line:
If you have cd/download: go to Forms (upper right corner) and find 1040 Wks, scroll down to Schedule 1, OR find Schedule 1 and click on it directly
