I received income from taking surveys. I did not receive any forms because it was less than $1000. Where do I report this income?

These earnings went to PayPal who said I didn’t earn enough to receive a form? Do I need to include this as income?

If you did not do the surveys as a business, you can enter this as Miscellaneous Income:

1. Under Less Common Income select Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C
2. On the Let's Work on Any Miscellaneous Income page, select Start to the right of Other reportable income
3. On the Any Other Taxable Income? screen, select Yes
4. On the Other Taxable Income screen enter the description "Survey Income," then the amount.  Select Continue
5. On the Other Miscellaneous Income Summary screen, select Done

You mist report al income even if you do not receive a form.  If you do surveys for money on a continuous basis, you may have to declare as Self-Employment income.  See What's the difference between self-employment income and other income?
