How do I show my income for 2019 as a self employed gig worker?

[ColeenD3 · Accepted solution]

On your 2019 return, you would enter your income on Schedule C. If you received a 1099-MISC, indicate that the income was reported there, to march up with the IRS. If not, you can enter it as cash.

To set up your business:

1. Open or continue your return.
2. Search for schedule c and click the Jump to link in the search results.
3. Answer Yes to Did you have any self-employment income or expenses?
   • If you've already entered self-employment work and need to enter more, select Add another line of work.
4. Follow the onscreen instructions.
