Hey guys.
I was an au pair last year until June 30 (2019). I got married to a US citizen that month and I got my green card in December (2019), so that means I am a resident for tax purposes.
We are about to file our taxes jointly. I read that I am supposed to declare the au pair income as self-employed but I am not quite sure what schedule I should use to include that income. Can someone help me?
Apparently my options are:
Schedule SE - But I don't have farm income, so where do I add my Au Pair income?
Schedule 2 - But there is no spot to add income, only taxes, how do I know my tax if I could not add my income?
Schedule C - But I am not the sole proprietor of anything, I don't have a business.
I am sorry but I am really lost with how I should include that income. I just wanna do the right thing.
Thank you
