To enter your miscellaneous income in TurboTax, while in your return:.

  • Type "Other Income" in the search window
  • Click on "Jump to Other Income"
  • Enter the information form you Form 1099-MISC, and click on Continue
  • Enter a description, for example: "Bank Bonus" and click on Continue
  • On the screen with "Does one of these uncommon situations apply?", indicate "None of these apply"
  • Answer "No..." to "Did the "Bank Bonus" involve work that's like your main job?"
  • Answer "I got it in 2019" when asked "How often did you get income for Bank Bonus?"
  • Answer "No, it didn't involve an intent to earn money."

The amount will be reported on line 8 of Schedule 1 (Form 1040).

what type of misc income - i ask because certain types will go on schedule 1 line 21 and not be subject to payroll taxes.   other types need to be reported on Schedule C and you will pay payroll taxes if the net is over $400.
