If I earn money as a content creator and the company that pays me is in another country, where do I enter my income in TurboTax?

Any amount entered into Foreign Earned Income reverts to zero.  Is this because of the income being less than my standard deduction?  At a loss here.

This income isn't foreign-earned income. It's self-employed income earned in the US. It's subject to income taxes and self-employment tax.

You report the income you received in cash, checks or bank transfers or without a 1099-NEC as self-employed income under Other self-employed income.

1. In business income, just under Type of Income, click on Add Income for this work
2. On the next page, click on the radio button next to Other Self-employed Income
3. Click Continue to enter your income received in cash, checks or bank transfers.

If you have expenses related to this business, you can deduct them.

To report your business income and expenses, you'll need to use TurboTax Deluxe or TurboTax Premium (Online) if you have expenses to deduct or any version of TurboTax (CD/Download).
