How do I report $300 on turbo tax which was earned delivering papers for 2 weeks? I did not receive any tax forms from the Paper.

Assuming your income was not W-2 income, it would be considered self employment income

f you earned more than $400 net income (income less expenses) working as a self-employed individual (or independent contractor), you must file a Schedule C, business income and expenses with your personal return and pay self-employment tax-same as withheld on a W-2.

 If you otherwise earned enough to file a return, you must report your self-employment income, no matter how small.

Simply follow these steps to enter your income from self-employment.
