If you were paid cash for some work that you did, it is self-employed income and this income has to be reported on your tax return.

For child tax credit purposes, this is counted as earned income, just like wages you receive as an employee.

You report the income you received in cash, checks or bank transfers or without a 1099-NEC as self-employed income under Other self-employed income.

• In business income, just under Type of Income, click on Add Income for this work
• On the next page, click on the radio button next to Other Self-employed Income
• Click Continue to enter your income received in cash, checks or bank transfers.

If you have expenses related to this business, you can deduct them.

To report your business income and expenses, you'll need to use TurboTax Deluxe or TurboTax Self-Employed (Online) if you have expenses to deduct or TurboTax Home and Business (CD/Download).
