High yield savings account?

I am currently looking to invest in a high yield savings account as an alternative income that I would then reintroduce into my HYS along with a monthly deposit. I, however, am having a difficult time finding one of interest and I'm not quite sure on the highest % I am able to receive without any type of fees.

As a secondary question, how would I then file these earnings in my taxes?

    High interest in a bank account, just means if you

    qualify, you will get 0.02% more. Bank interest rates

    are at an all time historical low. No way will this

    provide you with any type income. Sorry.

    The interest earned for taxes will be minuscule.
