new tax law coming Jan 1

[longbedGTs]

Has anyone heard about the new tax law of reporting profits of $600 or more on private transactions? Maybe I'm reading this wrong, but this sounds like some serious over reach. So...if I sell a car for over $600, then I have to report that gain on my taxes, correct? If so, that is utterly ridiculous.

Why do you think they were hiring 80k new irs agents. It wasn't to go after "the rich".
As if the economy wasn't suffering enough with the attacks on oil/gas and ic engines.
These representatives aren't in it for us.

IRS reminds Americans to report all PayPal transactions amounting to $600 or more or face an audit

According to the agency, the IRS is interested in transactions involving part-time work, gigs, and the sale of merchandise online — such as eBay and Etsy sales.

This actually went into affect the first of ‘22 and we’re supposed to claim it this year. It’s also been harder to cash checks this year too

heh...yep. My head is damn near caved in from all the face-palming I've done since the current regime was installed into office. What a disgrace. I'm kicking around the idea of selling the 86 GN, but will be damned if I'm going to pay taxes on the sale.

It's to replace the thousands that have quit;
And the tens of thousands more that are retiring in the next ten years;
And to augment the staff that reviews paper returns and answer the phone;
And to track down the tens of thousands of people, rich or otherwise, that flout the law.
This form doesn't affect your tax owed at all... unless you've been moving income under the table via Venmo.

If it shows up, put it in the folder with your other receipts and file it. If you don't keep good enough records to comply with this form without a minimum of effort, that's on you.

Bingo! It doesn't matter if you make taxable income selling stocks or selling stuff on FB Market place it's still taxable income. I know someone that has made thousands of dollars selling junk on Ebay, FB and other platforms for 20 years. He's a tax cheat plain and simple. If he gets caught too bad for him. He could easily work a second job and earn the same money for all the time he spends at it. He likes to think he's sticking to "the government". Well, if that "government" catches up to him, he'll owe thousands in back taxes and penalties. It will only be his own fault, no one else's. The rules are pretty simple. It's up to people that sell stuff as a business to follow them.

"We're the Government, we are here to help you."

Thanks, but no thanks. You've done enough.

The only bingo here is that the Government doesn't like competition when it comes to stealing money...

 

[TurboTGuy]

Police shortages, Teacher shortages, Border Agent shortages, OTR Trucker shortages.....

Let's hire 87000 new IRS agents.

Yeah, that's the ticket!

 

[TTA308]

Something else to think about , the IRS was actually created TO BE a scapegoat.. seeing how they can't fart unless Congress approves it , they don't make the laws but rather enforce them.. that's just one way lawmakers deflect any blame...

I have heard people say FUC THE IRS a million times and I have said it more than once as well...
but we should have said fuc the one's writing the laws in the first place...Almost forgot , the laws that apply to us do not apply to lawmakers... imagine that.

 

[Mr. Michael]

Just throwing this out there...

For as long as I can remember you have to make a profit selling the part to pay a tax on it. If you have $1000 in a part and sell it for $600 then you took a loss. You should not have to pay tax when you take a loss (as mentioned in the video).

 

[salvageV6]

I write Charley Rangel (D) on all my IRS checks, you don't pay any interest or penalties on any "unreported" income that way.

 

[TurboTGuy]

Well, since JB is forgiving all this student debt, he's gotta give 'em jobs, too. Goes to figure........

The IRS seems to be a good fit for folks that don't know/never knew how to manage their money.......... PFFFFTTT.

FJB!

So does that mean if I sell my daily driver for $10,000, but I paid $15,000 few years ago, can I deduct $5000 from my wages...Hmmm
