I am currently needing to lodge my tax and I don't work under a business or sole trader (ABN). I do private residential cleaning for family/friends every week/fortnight and receive payment via bank transfer. I have added up how much I received last financial 2023-2024 but I am unsure how to enter it all into ATO as it only states for sole trader/businesses.
I would suggest you enter the income as business income. See link

There is no requirement to have an ABN to receive business income.
As the link explains, "any other business income" is entered at this part of the tax return.
