How to report cash/wire transfer income without 1099 Information Returns?

I provided services for some people who payed me in cash or wired transfer.

@mmcersosimo-aol- , if the earnings are just once in blue moon -- rare -- then you enter the income as "other", you cannot deduct any expenses against this income ( generally). If on the other hand , this income is regular  / or expected to be regular ( just people paid you cash etc. and therefore no 1099-NEC issued ) then the onus is on you to report the income , deduct any expenses ( allowed ones ) for this stream of income, report all this on Schedule-C ( self-employment income ) and also pay Self Employment -- SECA -- taxes  ( equivalent to the FICA taxes paid  by the employer and  employee ).

Does this make sense ?  Is there more I can do for you ?

Thanks a lot. It does make sense.!!! So, in order to fill this out correctly, I should pick the  "Other self-employed income, includes 1099-K, cash, and checks" option, right?

@mmcersosimo-aol-  that is probably the best
