Yes. You are required to report all income received during the year. This would likely be self-employment income, which is reported on a Schedule C.
For tax purposes, self-employment income includes any part-time business or "side work" performed in which you are in business for yourself, rather than another person. You are also considered self-employed and need to file a Schedule C if you engage in business-like activities where you intend to make a profit.
Please follow these steps in TurboTax to start your Schedule C:
- Open your return.
- Search schedule c with the magnifying glass tool on the top of the page.
- Go to the Jump to schedule c link in the search results.
- Answer Yes to the page titled, Did you have any self-employment income or expenses?
- Follow the on-screen instructions.
- On the page titled Let's enter the income for your work, click on Other self-employed income under Common Income.
- Enter your type of income (cash/check) and the amount.
- Follow the on-screen instructions.
