I am an self employed exotic dancer and need some help filling taxes.

When I perform at a club I usually pay them $130 in rent for the day/night. I've been able to add my expenses but when it comes to adding my income for the job it gets confusing. It ask me: "What type of income did you receive for this work? If you received more than one type, we'll enter them one at a time."

and gives the options:

1099-MISC. Add all 1099-MISCs for this work. Learn more
Other self-employed income. Includes 1099-K, cash, and checks. Learn more
Uncommon income. Includes awards, interest, debt previously deducted. Learn more
Import from a payment processor. Import income from Square. Learn more
Do I select "Other self-employed income"?

Yes that will work.  You can report all your income as Cash income.  Only the total goes to schedule C line 1.

 

Usually you enter your self employment income first before you get to the expenses part.
