Then, due to a changed tax reporting rule, you will most likely receive an IRS Form 1099-K from your payment network\u2014even if you haven\u2019t received a 1099-K in the past. That\u2019s because the 1099-K tax reporting rule now requires third-party payment networks to send a 1099-K if those payments exceed the $600 reporting threshold. (A higher, $20,000, threshold previously triggered the Form 1099-K.)<\/p>\n<p>This \u201c$600 rule\u201d means that more people than in the past who have side hustles, and gigs, or part-time jobs, and businesses, and are paid through networks and\u00a0<a class=\"hawk-link-parsed\" href=\"https:\/\/www.kiplinger.com\/personal-finance\/banking\/603794\/how-to-choose-the-right-payment-app\" data-component=\"Inline Links\">apps like Venmo, Amazon, Square, and PayPal<\/a>, will receive a\u00a0<a class=\"hawk-link-parsed\" href=\"https:\/\/www.irs.gov\/forms-pubs\/about-form-1099-k\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.irs.gov\/forms-pubs\/about-form-1099-k\" data-component=\"Inline Links\">1099-K Form<\/a>\u00a0in January. But it\u2019s important to note that the new reporting threshold doesn\u2019t change the fact that the IRS has always required taxpayers to report all taxable income, whether they receive a 1099-K form or not.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"hawk-nest hawk-processed\" data-render-type=\"fte\" data-skip=\"dealsy\" data-widget-type=\"seasonal\" data-widget-id=\"603ace58-8527-4d0a-8911-cab7889ec5a9\" data-result=\"missing\"><\/aside>\n<p>However, since this is a key tax reporting change, it\u2019s good to have information about what IRS Form 1099-K is, and what the new threshold could mean for you.<\/p>\n<h5 id=\"what-is-a-1099-k-3\">What is a 1099-K?<\/h5>\n<p><a class=\"hawk-link-parsed\" href=\"https:\/\/www.irs.gov\/forms-pubs\/about-form-1099-k\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.irs.gov\/forms-pubs\/about-form-1099-k\" data-component=\"Inline Links\">Form 1099-K<\/a>\u00a0is basically an IRS information reporting form. The form contains information, for your tax return, about the gross amount of payment transactions that you had on a third-party payment network when that amount exceeds $600 in the previous year. Companies that are required to send a 1099-K provide a copy to you, and to the IRS.<\/p>\n<p>When you receive the Form 1099-K, you will want to make sure that it matches the information that you have in your records. If there are any problems with your 1099-K (e.g., the amounts listed don\u2019t belong to you or other information on the form is incorrect), you should contact the third-party payment network that sent the form. They might be able to issue a corrected 1099-K.<\/p>\n<h5 id=\"1099-k-threshold-for-2022-what-triggers-a-1099-k-3\">1099-K Threshold for 2022: What Triggers a 1099-K?<\/h5>\n<p>Previously, to receive a 1099-K from a third-party payment network, you had to exceed $20,000 in transactions for goods and services and have more than 200 business transactions in a year.<\/p>\n<p>Now, because of changes made under the American Rescue Plan Act, anyone with transactions that exceed a much lower $600 threshold amount (with no minimum number of transactions) in a year will likely receive a Form 1099-K from their third-party payment network. So, for example, under the changed rule, a single transaction for goods and services, that exceeds $600, could trigger the\u00a0<a class=\"hawk-link-parsed\" href=\"https:\/\/www.irs.gov\/forms-pubs\/about-form-1099-k\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.irs.gov\/forms-pubs\/about-form-1099-k\" data-component=\"Inline Links\">1099-K<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div id=\"bordeaux-static-slot-16\" class=\"bordeaux-slot bordeaux-filled-slot\" data-feat-ref=\"bordeaux-feat-id-144\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n<div id=\"bordeaux-incremental-ad-5\" data-feat-ref=\"bordeaux-feat-id-532\" data-google-query-id=\"CJO_ib_V5fsCFS8TigMdXVYGig\">\n<div id=\"google_ads_iframe_\/10518929\/kiplinger\/feature\/article_sidebar\/incr-mpu-1_0__container__\"><span style=\"font-family: NonBreakingSpaceOverride, 'Hoefler Text', 'Noto Serif', Garamond, 'Times New Roman', serif; letter-spacing: normal;\">As a result, a lot of people who didn\u2019t receive 1099-Ks in the past, will receive them in January.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h5 id=\"bordeaux-static-slot-17\" class=\"bordeaux-slot\" data-feat-ref=\"bordeaux-feat-id-145\"><span style=\"font-size: 48px; letter-spacing: -0.0415625em;\">Will You Get a 1099K From Venmo, PayPal, or Cash App?<\/span><\/h5>\n<p>Some\u00a0<a class=\"hawk-link-parsed\" href=\"https:\/\/www.irs.gov\/payments\/form-1099-k-frequently-asked-questions-individuals\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.irs.gov\/payments\/form-1099-k-frequently-asked-questions-individuals\" data-component=\"Inline Links\">people are wondering<\/a>\u00a0if they will receive a 1099-K from Venmo, or PayPal, because of the new $600 reporting threshold. The answer is maybe. Venmo, PayPal, Amazon, Square, Cash for Business through Cash App, and other third-party payment network providers, like Stripe, are required to report payments for goods and services to the IRS on Form 1099-K when those payments exceed the $600 threshold.<\/p>\n<p>However, personal transactions (e.g., personal payments to friends and family) on the payment networks including\u00a0<a class=\"hawk-link-parsed\" href=\"https:\/\/help.venmo.com\/hc\/en-us\/articles\/4407389460499-2022-Tax-FAQ\" data-url=\"https:\/\/help.venmo.com\/hc\/en-us\/articles\/4407389460499-2022-Tax-FAQ\" data-component=\"Inline Links\">Venmo<\/a>,\u00a0<a class=\"hawk-link-parsed\" href=\"https:\/\/newsroom.paypal-corp.com\/2021-11-04-New-US-Tax-Reporting-Requirements-Your-Questions-Answered\" data-url=\"https:\/\/newsroom.paypal-corp.com\/2021-11-04-New-US-Tax-Reporting-Requirements-Your-Questions-Answered\" data-component=\"Inline Links\">PayPal<\/a>, etc., are not considered payments for goods and services. This is because the1099-K third-party payment network reporting rule applies to payments made for goods and services. It doesn&#8217;t apply to payments made through the payment networks that were gifts, or other personal payments of money to family and friends.<\/p>\n<p>For example, if you received payment through a personal Cash App account during the year, those transactions won\u2019t be reported on a 1099-K. That\u2019s because that personal Cash App account is designed for noncommercial use, like sending a friend money because you\u2019re splitting the cost of a meal.
