The IRS website explains how to deal with Notice 2014-7 wages.   Basically you just exclude them as a negative on Line 21.

If EIC is involved you may have to make a few other adjustments on the EIC worksheet so that the program doesn't use the excluded wages for EIC purposes.

Enter the form it came on, then go to Other Income section and explain it is income under Notice 2014-7

enter same amount that was entered on the form it came on, but with a negative (ex. -500)
