Hi, last year I received a check from a class action settlement, on the amount of $97. Is this taxable money? should I declare it? if so, where would you put it in the income section?

Thanks

    The income would be taxable. You can report it as "other income". Follow these steps:
    1. go to the federal income section
    2. scroll to the bottom
    3. Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C, Start
    4. Scroll to the bottom
    5. Other reportable income, Start
    6. Other taxable income?
    7. Select YES
    8. Description class action settlement
    9. Amount, enter your amount $97
    10. Continue
