I got a check for a settlement in Dorado v. Bank of America. How/where do I report this as income?

posted

The information that I see about this case is that the settlement was for punitive damages due to BOA's breached promissory notes underlying certain FHA-insured home loans in violation of Federal Housing Administration regulations.

Punitive damages are taxable income, Please see the FAQ below to enter the form

I sold my half share of a owner-occupied duplex last year to other co-owner via quit claim. I am reporting the sale & have questions re: business % use changes, quit claim/settlement, and my sales price vs original basis.
