I received a retention bonus check with no w-2 or 1099. Where do I claim the income?

With no W-2, you will need to file as self employed and pay approximately 15% self employment tax which is the equivalent of Social Security and Medicare withholding tax on a W-2.

Simply follow these steps to enter your income from self-employment
