My mom pays me in cash to sit with her mom (my grandmother who has Alzheimer’s and a bone disease) a few times a week. Which form would I file this under?

And is this considered “self employed”? Unsure how to file it.

1. Schedule C  

2. Yes because you did not have Medicare and Social Security tax withheld. You must pay those, labelled as self-employment taxes. See:
