Earned Income is reported on a W2 or a 1099 Misc as Non-employee Compensation, or any income from a business you are the owner (not rental property, but trade or business reported on Schedule C.)

Here is a good TurboTax article that talks about earned income:  What is earned income?

Some of the content is below:

The IRS defines earned income as:

• Taxable income you earned as an employee, such as wages, salaries, commissions, and tips
• Profits from operating your business or farm
• Long-term disability pay, if received before the minimum retirement age
• Union strike benefits
