Does a grant for $143 need to be put in as income even if i didn't get a 1099-misc form

Yes, you must report all your income. If you don't have a reporting form, include it under Other Income.

• Wages & Income
• I'll choose what I work on
• Less Common Income select Start (or Update) for 
• Miscellaneous Income.
• Other reportable income and you can enter your own description(s) and amount(s).
