Based on the limited information you’ve provided, it sounds like you may be working as an independent contractor, and would be considered self-employed. 

 

If this is the case, then, to enter self-employment income and expenses in TurboTax Online:

  1. Select Tax Home in the left pane
  2. On the Hi, let's keep working on your taxes! screen, select the dropdown to the right of Income & Expenses
  3. Select Start, Pick up where you left off or Review/Edit, as appropriate
  4. Scroll down and select the dropdown to the right of Self-Employment
  5. Select Edit, Edit/Add or Revisit to the right of Self-employment income and expenses
  6. From here, you can input/delete/edit any information necessary

See the TurboTax Help article Am I considered self-employed? for more information.

If this isn’t your situation, feel free to post back with more details about this income.

Do you even know what Labor & Industries compensation is? Your response indicates that you do not.

 

A correct answer is found by using the IRS Unemployment Compensation Q&A tool located at Are payments I receive for being unemployed taxable?. This tool covers L&I unemployment compensation among others to determine to what degree compensation MAY be taxable.
