Schedule F Custom Hire (Machine Work)

Hi there,

 

I am a farmer, and on Part 1 of the Schedule F 1040, line 7 says "Custom Hire (Machine Work) Income". Does this only mean work on machines? I am asking because I built garden boxes for an individual, so should this be counted as Custom Hire or just as normal income?

 

Thanks,


J

It would be "normal income".  Custom Hire would be you doing field work for hire; say performed combining for 3rd parties and received income for combining and received payment for that or other types of field or machine work.
