How do I enter "Other income" on 1040 line 21? On the "Less Common Income" page, after "Did you have ?" I click "Yes" and it skips to "Tell us about the health..."

Please follow the instructions below to report your cash (check)  income on line 21:

  • Click Federal Taxes -> Wages & Income and scroll down to Less Common Income
  • Go to the last selection, Miscellaneous Income and click Start
  • Go to the last option, Other reportable income and click Start
  • When it asks, "Any other reportable income?" say yes and then type in a description and the amount to report it on your tax return.
