I did contract service work for a school district and worked for DoorDash, both require business information and I am unsure how to tell if either are qualified business or trade income sources. I am also unsure of what to do about business information as I was employed by a company or government entity for these jobs. Any help with how to proceed would be appreciated.

Can you clarify how you were paid? Did you receive a 1099 or a W-2 form?

For both of these jobs I received 1099-NEC forms. For Doordash all payments were direct deposit and for the contract service work I received physical paychecks shortly after the work was completed.
