The following types of income may or may not be listed on self- employment tax forms. If the income is not listed on the self-employment tax forms, the income must be verified separately. 1. Qualified Service Provider (QSP) – Qualified Service Providers (QSPs) are individuals who provide care for people who want to continue to live in their own homes and communities. QSPs do not need to have a special certificate or license, but they do need to prove they have the skills to provide care. • QSP income is considered EARNED self-employment income when the individual is not an employee of an agency. • QSP income is considered regular earned income when the individual is employed by an agency. 2. Boarder - Individuals or groups of individuals residing with others and paying reasonable compensation for lodging and meals. Income from boarders is considered EARNED self-employment income when the individual providing the board is actively engaged in providing the lodging and meals and the boarder is not included in the household based on program policy.
To calculate income from room and board, take the monthly gross receipts less $100 per boarder.
