What was the Form 1099-MISC for? Reimbursement for expenses or for work he did? Or something else?

If your husband received this 1099-MISC for work he did in 2017, then you need to report this as Self-Employment income on Schedule C.  the IRS considers this as meaning he is self-employed, selling his services to the company he worked for.  By reporting the income on a Schedule C, the income will cause the program to generate the Self-Employment tax he needs to pay.  That's social security and medicare tax he owes since the company did not take out those taxes from his pay.
