If I had a small side business, but made less than $1,000, do I need to claim it? If so, how do I do that?

I sell Mary Kay, but only to my family and for personal use. I did not make much, and would have to find out exactly how much, but I know it was less than $1,000, possibly even less than $600.

If that is your only income and you earned less than $400...

If that is your only income and you earned less than $400, after your expenses, then you are not required to file a tax return.

If that's not your only income, then you are required to report it on your tax return.

For more information on filing requirements, please visit the Turbo tax FAQ below.
