If I earn money online, do I need to claim it? -

I have been earning some money from various sites on the net. I imagine it is in my best interest to claim it, but my question is this. Can I claim any expenses for having a home run business? What do I need to qualify for that? Thanks in advance.________1. All income from all sources must be reported. 2. You can easily set up a home-based business by keeping records of your income and expense and reporting them on Schedule C, Profit and Loss from a Business of Form 1040, Individual Income Tax Return. That will keep you compliant - I hope this helps.
