Report this in the following manner. 

 

  1. Log into your account
  2. Select Wages and income
  3. Less Common income
  4. Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099>start
  5. Scroll to the bottom of the page to Other Reportable Income
  6. Other taxable income, answer yes
  7. Then give a brief description of the income and the amount listed.  You can list this as W2G earnings paid to a investor. Issued them a 1099 MISC. Then report the portion you gave to the investor with a minus sign in front of the amount.
