What does cheers mean?

Does he even have to file taxes?

That is self employment income.

To report your self employment income you will fill out schedule C in your personal 1040 tax return and pay SE self employment Tax.  You can enter Self Employment Income into Online Deluxe or Premier but if you have any expenses you will have to upgrade to the Self Employed version.  How to enter self employment income

He doesn't want to go to self employment because this is all he has done for the last year. He is filing for disability.  Does he even have to file?

Yes.  Sorry that is self employment income and he has to file a return for it and pay the self employment tax on it.
