Did work got paid in cash how do i report it

If you worked and received cash, the IRS considers you self-employed.

The TurboTax products that support self-employed are:

To enter your income and expenses from your  self-employment income was only from cash or personal checks or credit card payments:

  • Type “Schedule C” in the Search box and then select the “Jump to” link.
  • This will take you to where you can enter any cash, personal checks or credit card payments (Form 1099-K) related to your self-employment.
  •  You may be asked some general questions about your business.
  •  After you answer them, you’ll be taken to the Your Business screen where you can enter this income as Additional Income under Business Income.


To enter your form 1099-MISC for your self-employed income:

  • Type “1099-misc” in the Search box and then select the “Jump to” link.
  • This will take you directly to the section where you can enter your 1099-MISC.
  •  You’ll also be able to enter any cash, personal checks or credit card payments (Form 1099-K) related to your self-employment.
