I have a 1099-Misc for New York Paid Family leave. The application is insisting that I am self employed. PFL is not work.... How do I enter this?

To enter your Form 1099-MISC paid family leave information in TurboTax Online without triggering self-employment tax:

1. Open TurboTax Online
2. Select  Tax Home in the left pane
3. Select the dropdown to the right of Wages & Income
4. Select  Pick up where you left off, Review/Edit or the edit pencil
5. On the Great! We've got your income info page, select the dropdown to the right of Other Common Income -- Tax refunds, 1099-G, 1099-NEC, 1099-MISC, 1099-K
6. Select Start to the right of Form 1099-MISC
7. Select Yes on the Did you get a 1099-MISC? page
8. Enter the information from your 1099-MISC on the Let's enter the income from your 1099-MISC page, then select Continue

13. On the Did the Paid Family Leave involve an intent to earn money? page, select the bullet next to No, it didn't involve an intent to earn money.  This indicates to the program that this wasn't self-employment income, so self-employment tax won't be triggered.  Select Continue
14. On the Your 1099-MISC summary page, select Done, unless you have more Forms 1099-MISC to enter
