We cannot see your tax return or your screen.  What delivery income?  Were you delivering Instacart, DoorDash, Grubhub----or something like that?   That is self-employment income and yes, you have to enter that income on your tax return and pay self-employment tax for Social Security and Medicare.   I do not understand where you are seeing "nonfarm" --please explain that.  

 

If you have self-employment income for which you will pay self-employment tax for Social Security and Medicare,  you will need to use online Premium software or any version of the desktop software download so that you can prepare a Schedule C for your business expenses.
