I do not have a business. I was paid $150 for some handyman work. How do I enter this income ?

Level 15

If you do handyman work regularly, the IRS considers you to be in business and you should file as self-employed.

Otherwise, enter this as “other income”.

Click Federal in the left column
Click Wages & Income at the top
Scroll down to Less Common Income. Click Show more
Start Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C
Start Other reportable income
Say Yes to Any Other Taxable Income?
Enter a description (handyman) and amount ($150)
