Get your taxes done using TurboTax

This can be reported as the sale of items not associated with a business so this won't be considered as self-employment income.

 

For reporting Form 1009-K for personal items sold not associated with a trade or business, you can report this as Miscellaneous income.

 

  • From the left menu, go to Federal and select the first tab, Wages & Income
  • Add more income by scrolling down to the last option, Less Common Income, and Show more
  • Scroll down to the last option, Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C, and Start
  • Choose the last option, Other reportable income and Start and Yes
  • Enter the applicable description and amount and Continue
    • First, enter Form 1099-K as received. It is essential that the full amount be entered.
    • Next, enter an adjustment as a negative number to reflect the cost of these items and the sales expenses  (but not more than the sales price. You can't produce a loss.)
