medical care cash rewards

[simpleliving412]

Hi All,
i received 2 medical care cash reward, and about to include to 2020 tax report under, Other Reportable Income.
- 1st cash reward dated 6/26/2020
- 2nd cash reward dated 1/8/2021

do i need to include 2nd cash reward as it was dated 2021, on 2020 tax report, so i don't have to wait till 2022 (next year) to include it on 2021 tax report.

in short, can i both include them on 2020 tax report although one is dated year 2021.

thanks and be safe to All...

No. If you received the cash award in 2021, you will need to include that on your 2021 tax return.
