1099 from online earning

Copies of form(s) 1099 are sent to he IRS so they are able to cross-reference them with your tax return and will know if you did not report it. The IRS would send you a notice and you would have to rectify it. There may be penalties and interest.

 If you left  Form 1099 off of your tax return, you can amend your tax return to include it.

TurboTax will tell you if it has to be mailed.
