If I accept payment through my spouse's paypal who gets taxed?
I have a few compound questions, some of which may border legal SE. So please feel free to defer areas that you feel are in the other category.

I have been spending time learning photography and recently I have tried to venture into food photography. The vendors liked my photos and they reimburse the food and also pay per image that they accept (roughly about - per food picture). They asked for my Paypal account.

I offered them my wife's paypal account. Come tax season, who should expect the tax bill? Me because I earned a few dollars or my wife because it is her Paypal and/or bank account? (The sum total we're talking about, if it is relevant, is about 0 to 0 in the year including reimbursement for food purchased to photograph.)

The legal aspect is as follows: As a H1B Visa holder I am to not hold multiple jobs(?) or get paid for anything over 40 hours(?). So if I get paid for my photographs is this going to be an issue? If so, can I have my wife (US citizen) get paid?
