The income is from NYS Paid Family Leave that i took due to having a new baby. It's  through Metlife.

Benefits paid to employees will be taxable non-wage income that must be included in federal gross income.  See New York State's New Paid Family Leave Program.

 

Instead of trying to force this through the interview, delete the 1099-MISC and enter under Miscellaneous Income- Other Reportable Income.  Put 1099-MISC NY PFL as the description.  This will report it as Other Income and not delf-employment.
