Where do I enter a Section 897 capital gain reported on a 1099-DIV?

[Froggy73]

On my client's 1099-DIV was reported an amount under line 2f (Section 897 capital gain).  Do you know how/where to report it?

Thanks.

Are you using ProSeries software?

Having a background in finance, have never used tax software, I do all this on my own.

Hi there,

You’ve come to an Intuit site supporting tax professionals, and you may be looking for support as an individual taxpayer. Please visit the TurboTax Help site for support.

Being you have a background in finance then I'm sure you are aware that  boxes 2e and 2f do not need to be completed for recipients that are U.S. individuals. See the instructions for 1099DIV

On the regular Int & Div worksheet, double click on the line that has the broker name in it.  If you have a Charles Schwab statement, you've entered "Charles Schwab" as the payer name, so you double click on that and it takes you to the worksheet for extra info.
