Yes. For tax purposes, self-employment income includes any part-time businesses or "side work" performed in which you are in business for yourself, rather than another person. You are also considered self-employed if you engage in business-like activities where you intend to make a profit.
Your website, which generates money through Amazon, was created with the intent to make a profit. Therefore, you would be considered self-employed.
In order to report your self-employment income in 2021, you will need to enter your gross earnings and expenses on your Schedule C. To access these fields in TurboTax, complete the following steps:
- Open your return in TurboTax.
- Search for Schedule C with the magnifying glass tool on the top of the page.
- Select the Jump to Schedule C link in the search results.
- Select Yes to the question Did you have any self-employment income or expenses?
- Follow the on-screen instructions to complete your Schedule C.
