Me and my husband both do postmates how do we put that income in our file if they don’t send w2

It looks to me like Postmates is one of those outfits where both of you will be considered "independent contractors" (self-employed) and if either of you earned more than $600 you should receive a 1099-MISC with the income in Box 7. Irrespective of whether you receive a 1099-MISC or not you are obligated to report your income on your income tax return. If you don't get 099-MISCs you calculate your revenue based on your own records.
You report your income on Schedule C, (one for each of you), and on Schedule C you'll deduct any associated costs connected with earning that income. Your taxable income from self-employment will be taxed at ordinary income tax rates. You will also be assessed a Self-Employment tax (Social Security and Medicare) that calculated at a roughly 15% tax rate. TurboTax will do all the calculations for you based upon your Schedule C input.
In order to complete a full Schedule C with revenue and expenses using an online product you will need to upgrade to TurboTax Self-Employed.
