Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I'm using 2023 Premiere Desktop.   The steps are a bit different than above for this situation.  In the state of GA there is a Section 218 exclusion, so no FICA withholding was necessary, and no W-2 was issued because pay was under $600.

Navigating this took patience. Make a wrong selection and find yourself at a dead end or with an inappropriate additional form . 

Less common Income> Miscellaneous Income 1099-A, 1099 C> Other Income not Already reported in a form W-2 or Form 1099.

Did you receive Any Other Wages: "YES". 

[Continue] through the next 3 pages to get to "Any Other Earned Income"

Select "YES" to "Did you earn any other wages?" which puts you on "Enter Source of Other Earned Income". There are 2 choices.  1) Do not select "Employee Compensation that was not reported on a W-2".  That leads to a dead end in the reason code selection dropdown.  2) Select "Other".  There enter "Election Worker" and amount.

This appears on Form 1040, line 1h.
