Cash payments

Cash payments for what?  Is it self employment income?    And what is your question?

What is your question?

You can't just add an amount to your AGI. You have to report income in the proper place on your tax return, depending on the type of income.

What were the cash payments for, and who were the payments from? If the payments were for work that you did, it's probably self-employment income. If so, you will have to upgrade to TurboTax Premium to enter the self-employment income.
