If I do freelance work on the side (I have a full time job) is it a schedule C?

I have a full time job (W2 income) but I also do freelance work on the side.

I did the freelance full time in 2016 and filed with a schedule C.

Would I still file a schedule C for that freelance work or would I claim that profit somewhere else?

Thanks!

Yes. If you continued to earn income or otherwise actively participate in the freelance on the side, continue to file your Schedule C (Self-Employed).

The time spent is not relevant to your filing. Notice thousands multi-level businesses are filed with just minimal activity.

Please feel free to post any additional details or questions in the comment section.
