That is self employment income.  To report your self employment income you will fill out schedule C in your personal 1040 tax return and pay SE self employment Tax. 

  You can enter Self Employment Income into Online Deluxe but if you have any expenses you will have to upgrade to the Premium version or use any of the Desktop CD/Download programs.
