Do not enter the 1099-MISC, instead use the steps below to report this as 'Other Income'. Click on Wages and Income and scroll down to Less Common Income Go to the last selection, Miscellaneous Income and click Start Go to the last option, Other reportable income and click Start When it asks, "Any other reportable income?" > yes and then type in a description and the amount to report it on your tax return.

My husband passed in 2022 but received a 2023 1099 misc in his name and ssn for paying out of unused vacation time. Do I report this 1099 misc on my tax return?
