While physically present in the US, I was paid as an employee by a foreign employer? I do not have receive a w-2. Do i declare this income as self-employment or wages?

U.S.-sourced income includes all income received from U.S. organizations or individuals and compensation received from

both U.S. and foreign organizations or individuals for work performed in the U.S. It also depends on whether you are a resident alien or nonresident

 

Since you were not issued a W-2, it can be treated as self-employment income if you performed services independently as a contractor.

 

The self-employment income is reported in Schedule C.
