I have a question. I worked a part time job in the summer and no tax was subtracted from my checks and I did not receive a W2. How to I report this imcome

If you did not receive a W-2 or a 1099, the IRS considers you to be self employed.

If you received a 1099, and your compensation is listed in box #7 of Form 1099-MISC, you are being treated by the IRS as self-employed worker, also referred to as an independent contractor.

If you earned more than $400 net income (income less expenses) working as a self-employed individual (or independent contractor), you must file a Schedule C, business income and expenses with your personal return and pay self-employment tax-same as withheld on a W-2.

If you otherwise earned enough to file a return, you must report your self-employment income, no matter how small.

To report your business expense in TurboTax:

• Type in schedule c in the search box, top right of your screen

• Hit the Enter key
