Get your taxes done using TurboTax
@Deanbumpc The user forum works like a message board. You post your question and wait until someone replies to you. You have posted several times in this thread. It sounds like you have self-employment income from some sort of recycling you are doing. When you are self-employed, it is your own responsibility to keep records for yourself of your earnings. TurboTax cannot make the recycling center issue more receipts to you.
When you are self-employed, you have to pay self-employment tax for your own Social Security and Medicare, as well as ordinary income tax, since none of that is being withheld from the money that is being paid to you.
You can enter the amount you were paid as self-employment income even if you did not receive a 1099NEC or 1099Misc. Amounts paid to you in cash can be entered. You will need to use online Self-Employed software or any version of the CD/download. You will need to prepare a Schedule C for your business expenses---such as mileage for driving around to the various locations where you collect materials to recycle, etc.

If your self-employment income was only from cash, personal checks, credit card payments, or cryptocurrency
Type Schedule C in the Search box and then select the Jump to link. This will take you to where you can enter any cash, personal checks, credit card payments, or cryptocurrency (Form 1099-K) related to your self-employment. You may first be asked some general questions about your business. After you answer them, you’ll be taken to the Let's get income for (your line of work) screen where you can enter this income as Additional Income.
