    You're not filing a 1099, you'll file a 1040+Schedule C. Unless you make $20,000/yr on MTurk AMT doesn't file a 1099 on your behalf so you just have to report your own tracked earnings (pull it from MTurk's dashboard is generally the best you can do, but IIRC someone here got audited and had to go more in-depth then? Can't remember it was a post in passing hopefully someone quotes me to link it lol)

    Credit karma is free in exchange for selling all your personal deets, there's some other program that gets linked and I forget where but if you earn <$60,000 there are lots of free options on the IRS website https://www.irs.gov/filing/free-file-do-your-federal-taxes-for-free

    I haven't been able to be around much lately so everyone feel free to blow me up if we've already been talking about it, but StageIt has tons of streaming concerts (mostly paid) and NPR has been keeping a running list too

    I don't think anyone knows as much about me in real life as Angela Listy. She can probably write a very unflattering biography of me at this point.

    I agree. Intuit just happens to be one of the ones dislike the most.

    And yet still use them every year for my taxes

    Actually, good faith ignorance for something like this that isn't common knowledge can be very effective in getting out of any of the onerous (penalties) consequences of getting it wrong. The Service generally acknowledges that income taxes are kind of complicated and wouldn't expect someone making a few hundred dollars to necessarily engage an outside preparer (at a cost of a few hundred dollars) to ensure they got it all exactly right.

    (ETA: The occasional horror story of the IRS blowing up someone's life for seemingly no reason* notwithstanding.

    (*But there's usually more to the story.))
