Social Media Income

[Seandelle007]

How do I claim social media influencer income for my son when half is in USD and half CDN? Is it self employed or just listed under other income? He also has expenses but amounts are small. 

[MinhT1 · Accepted solution]

Social influencer income is self-employed income. If your son did not receive form 1099-NEC, he still have to report this income.

CDN are converted in USD using exchange rates published in this IRS document.

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