Hobby Income

If you have a profit motive for your hobby, then you would usually enter the income and expenses in the Business Income (Schedule C) section.

Business Income: Menu Path: Income > Business / Rental Income > Business Income (Schedule C)

If it really is a hobby and not a business, you need to enter any hobby income on the Other Sources of Income screen as hobby income. You won't be able to deduct any expenses for your hobby.

Hobby Income: Menu Path: Income > Uncommon Income > Other Income
