Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Since you did not receive either a 1099-K or a 1099-MISC, you can enter the income as Additional Income. To do this, please follow these steps:

1. Click on Income and Expenses and then click the Start/Revisit box in the Self-Employment section.
2. On Your 2019 self-employed work summary screen, click Edit next to your business. 
3. On the Here's your [business] info screen, click on the box Add income for this work.  
4. On the next screen, Let's get any additional income, mark the button for Additional income and other income and click the Continue box.  
5. Enter the type and amount of income on the next screen [Tell us about additional income].  
6. If you need additional lines, click on Add another row.

You are correct that you should write down the employer's name in the description just so you (and the IRS) can identify the source.
