I became a tupperware consultant in 2016, they did not send out 1099 forms since my sales were under $5,000. Can I still get a deduction for business items purchased?

You should still report your income as General Income in Turbo Tax.

• Select the Business Tab
• Select Continue on the Let’s Find Some Business Expenses screen.
• Select I’ll Choose What to Work on at the next screen
• Select Update at Business Income and Expense
• Select Edit next to your business
• Select Start or Update next to Business Income
• Select Start next to General Income

Enter a description of how the revenue was earned and enter the dollar amount.

You can also enter your expense for business items purchased.
