The income and expenses as an independent contractor  will be reported on Schedule C which is part of your overall tax return. This also means you will be subject to the 15.3% SE Tax.  If you did not pay Self Employment (SE) Taxes in 2025, and if you plan to do this again in 2026, it may be a good idea to make estimated quarterly payments to avoid penalties.
