In 2018 my daughter made $1,000 babysitting. She contributed $1,000 to her Roth IRA. We reported it in Turbotax under "miscellaneous income" then "other reportable income". There was no problem. It placed the income under line 1 on 1040. This year under the same circumstances the software is stating she is not eligible for a Roth contribution and placing the income on line 7a on form 1040. Has the law changed? Is babysitting not earned income?
