This would go in the "Other Common Income" In TurboTax Online. Please delete the 1099-Misc.

Follow these steps:

  1. Sign into your TurboTax account.
  2. Go to Tax Tools in the left panel.
  3. Select Tools.
  4. Select Delete a form.
  5. Delete the 1099-Misc.
  6. Sign out of your account and sign back in.
  7. Go to Wages and Income.
  8. Scroll down to Other Common Income and click Show more.
  9. Select 1099-Misc and click Start.
  10. Continue with the interview.
