I did not receive a 1099-MISC form, and I was wondering how do I report the income I made from my independent contracting?  (I made less than $550)  What form am I supposed to fill out?

It is advisable that you place this income as Other income placed in Line 21 of your Tax return. To do so please follow the instructions below:

  1. Log in to your TurboTax Account
  2. From the main upper most tab select Federal Taxes
  3. In the secondary tab select Wages and Income
  4. Scroll down to Less Common Income and select Show More
  5. Once the screen drops down select Start in Miscellaneous Income
  6. Then select Start to Other Reportable Income.
  7. The next screen asks Any Other Taxable Income? Click on Yes
  8. Just place a small description of the activity and the amount of income you received and TurboTax will walk you through the rest of the process.

The program will walk you through the process of declaring this income and any expenses related to its activity.
