Education

You can use it to pay for education, but it is not the same as a scholarship. You cannot offset the income with the education expenses. You do need to claim it as income. Education expenses may be used by you to apply for an education credit if you are otherwise eligible. You do not need to pay self-employment tax on the income. It should be reported as "Other Income".
