Get your taxes done using TurboTax
This sounds like self-employment income, and it needs to be reported on your return. See the TurboTax Help article Am I considered self-employed? for more information.
You're not a household employee based on this income. A household employee is someone who's paid to provide domestic services in another person's household. See the TurboTax Help article Who is considered a household employee? for more information.
You probably won't receive a Form 1099-K from Facebook. Form 1099-K shows the gross amount of reportable payment transactions on Facebook, but online marketplaces are only required to send Forms 1099-K to taxpayers who receive over $20,000 and have over 200 transactions.
However, the form may be available where you find your account data on Facebook.
To enter your self-employment income and expenses in TurboTax Online:
- Select Tax Home in the left pane
- On the Hi, let's keep working on your taxes! screen, select the dropdown to the right of Wages & Income
- Select Start, Pick up where you left off, or Work on other income, as appropriate
- Scroll down and select the dropdown to the right of Self-Employment
- Select Edit, Edit/Add or Revisit to the right of Self-employment income and expenses
- From here, you can input any information necessary
