Participation Stipend

I received a $60 participation stipend after completing a short training/class through SE Iowa Regional STEM, which is not my employer. I am employed as a preschool teacher elsewhere. I didn’t receive a 1099 or other documents, besides the check stub. Is this stipend taxable? If so, where do I input it on my income taxes?

A stipend would be reported as "Other Income". To do so, while logged in to your return:

Click on Federal
Click on Income & Expenses
Scroll to the bottom of the "Your income and expenses" page, and click on "Less Common Income"
Click on "Show more"
At the bottom of the page, next to "Miscellaneous Income..." click on Start/Revisit
Other reportable income - click on Start, then answer Yes
Give a description and enter amount of income from the stipend

This amount will also be reported on line 8 of Schedule 1 (Form)
