Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Working for Favor as a Contract Worker makes you Self-Employed. 

You would claim the income on Schedule C. 

Report it the same as cash since you do not have a 1099-K although you should really be issued a 1099-NEC (Non-Employee Compensation) and they should have issued a 1099-NEC to you if you made more than $600.  

 

A 1099-K is issued when money passes through an online merchant, like E-bay. 

If you performed a service for Favor, you should get a 1099-NEC for what you earned, similar to a Uber Driver. 

If you "work for" someone, you are an employee and should get a W-2.
