IRS announces delay for implementation of $600 reporting threshold for third-party payment platforms’ Forms 1099-K

Through the American Rescue Plan of 2021, if you sold over $600 through third party payment platforms like Paypal or Venmo, you would automatically be sent a 1099-K

The IRS is basically saying that they will ignore this for 2022 and start this in 2023.

Now it's unclear if there will be a change to this. There's currently a few bills trying to change this.

Senator Hassan has the Cut the Red Tape for online sales act that would increase the threshold to $5,000

Senator Cramer has the Stop the Nosy Obsession with Online Payments Act of 2022 (SNOOP)

This bill will essentially eliminate the $600 and get us back to the good days of $20,000 and 200 transactions.

So obviously, this $600 limit might be annoying if you're just a small time casual seller trying to sell some stuff on Ebay.

Anywho, hope you found this helpful

>What a bunch of poor, dumb idiots. They should just be happy that they're allowed to sell their crap online at all. I can't believe the government is even considering making it easier for them. This country is going to hell in a handbasket.

How will they ever catch elon musk if they dont audit his 600 dollar venmo transactions? I mean thats the only reason they wanted 87 fucking thousand agents. For “billionaires”.

87,000 new is agents and 600 dollar reporting. Yes, thank God that someone finally took action.

It definitely sounds like this administration will put an end to tax dodging billionaires now.

I imagine we’ll still get 1099’s from eBay and other big vendors as they’ve already spent the money on the infrastructure to produce them.
