You would need to file this return as a self-employed return to pay for your income and FICA taxes. To report:

 

  1. Go to Federal
  2. Wages and Income
  3. Self-Employment
  4. Self-employment income and expenses
  5. In the first part of the return, describe this the best you can. You can describe your business as a UN Diplomat. 
  6. After your profile is complete, there will be a screen titled Let's enter the income for your UN Diplomat work 
  7. Check the box mentioning Other self-employed income, includes cash and checks
