Efficient Reporting for Tax Filers
As a self-employed individual, managing taxes can be arduous. Understanding the rules for reporting income from payment platforms is crucial for compliance.
Rules Made Simple

- Compliance: Regardless of 1099 form receipt, all income must be reported to the IRS.
If payments from platforms exceed thresholds, consult a tax professional to ensure accurate reporting and compliance.
