Do you have to show on your tax return if you transfer a huge amount using the balance transfer check from a credit card into your checking account?

Answer

That is not counted as income, it is debt. You are not being paid for working or asset liquidation, etc. You have to pay back the amount plus fees and interest. So it cannot be classified as income.
