Unless you are working as an employee being paid with a W-2, then you will use Schedule C Business Income and Expenses to report your income. Schedule C indicates that you are self-employed.
TurboTax will guide you through the process by asking you questions one step at a time. Use these steps to go to the Schedule C section of your return:
- On the top row of the TurboTax online screen, click on Search (or for CD/downloaded TurboTax locate the search box in the upper right corner)
- This opens a box where you can type in “schedule c” (be sure to enter exactly as shown here) and click the magnifying glass (or for CD/downloaded TurboTax, click Find)
- The search results will give you an option to “Jump to schedule c”
- Click on the blue “Jump to schedule c” link
