Deductions & credits
You do not get the child and dependent care credit. The parents who paid you are the ones who can use that credit on their tax return. You have self-employment income and you have to report the amount they paid you on your own return. The amount you enter on your tax return has to match what they entered on their return. They enter either your Social Security number or your Tax ID on their return, and the IRS matches those amounts up with the amount you put on your return.
You have to use either online Self-Employed software or any version of the desktop software in order to prepare your Schedule C for your business expenses.
