In 2018, I received a check in a class action lawsuit related to a stock I sold in 2013. I did not receive a 1099. Where do I report this income? Thank you

You can report the income as miscellaneous income on your personal tax return.

To enter the income (for the online version):

1. Click on Federal on the left hand side of the screen in the black area
2. Click on Wages & Income at the top of your screen
3. Scroll down (  you may need to click on All Income) to Less Common Income
4. Click on Show More
5. Scroll down to Miscellaneous Income
6. Click on Start
7. Scroll down to Other reportable income and click Start
8. Enter a description and income amount
