  My wife and son both receive a once-a-year distribution from their indian tribe, how would I report this?

  Ok, so I don't have to report it anywhere in TT?


No, you so not have to report this anywhere in TurboTax.

To clarify this, what state do you live in and on what form, if any, is the distribution reported?

 We live in Oklahoma, but the tribe's reservation is in Red Lake, Minnesota. The payments were not recorded on any 1099 forms. They just received $500 checks, from the tribe's. The money comes from a yearly  settlement the federal government pays to the tribe.

This is not counted as income.
