Me and my wife file jointly. She worked for Amazon Flex one day last year. I tried to get a w-2 from them but because she made less then $600.00 no w-2. Do I need the w-2

bethanydayao,

Amazon is correct that they do not need to issue her a tax form.  According to

https://www.keepertax.com/posts/amazon-flex-1099

she was not a W-2 employer, but an independent contractor.  In that setting, she is considered self-employed and could have received a 1099-NEC should they have decided to issue one anyways for under $600 payments.

Self-employed income will reported via Schedule C.  Follow that link for the information you will need to dig out to handle Schedule C entry.

She didn't make enough money to claim, so no. She doesn't need a w2.
