How do you report earnings from Twitch? It was a one time payment and didn't receive a 1040 or 1099. Was around $100.

Just trying to figure out where to add this since there was no form sent just a payment details report.

You can report your payment as Other reportable income unless you are running a business on Twitch.

 

Twitch will not send a Form 1099 if the amount is less than $600 so there's no need to wait for a form.

  • In TurboTax Online click on Federal on the left column
  • Click on Wages & Income at the top
  • Scroll down to Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C. Start
  • Choose Other reportable income
  • Say Yes to Any Other Taxable Income?
  • In Other Taxable Income, enter a Description and Amount
