I am confused on where to enter the $743 I made doing surveys last year. I didn't receive any forms. It's not self employment income. I tried to also do it under "Other common income: 1099-MISC" but when I try that it asks me if I received a 1099-MISC and since I did not receive one I put no, and then it exits that form, as if to say it doesn't apply to me.

My last resort is to probably file it under "Less common income & then Miscellaneous Income"... is that correct? Or is there something else or some other way I should be doing it?

Yes, you are in the right area.

Scroll to Less common income
Select Miscellaneous Income 1099-A, 1099-C [Start / Revisit]
Then select Other income not already reported on a Form W-2 or Form 1099
This is Other Earned Income so select Yes

Yes I am having this same problem I work for 3 survey companies one I did not start can not file til next year the other 2 which they said I can not file I made one for $475 and other $592 doesn't that mean I can still file my taxes? they had me fill out the 1099 and they said the IRS said I had to make $600 so if I have those both I done made $1065 please answer this thank you.

they don't have to issue 1099s because for each, your earnings were under $600. However, you must report this income on your tax return - schedule C because the total is over $400. if this is your only income you shouldn't have an income tax but you will have a self-employment tax
