Maria should use Schedule C to report her business income.

Explanation:

Anyone who is running a business (as a single owner not in partnership) has to fill the Schedule C form while filling annual tax returns.

Schedule C:

It is profit or loss form of a business and tells the income as well as deductible expenses of a business for a tax year.

Note:

If someone is operating more than one business then he or she has to file a separate Schedule C for each of business.
