IRS REVISES TIMELINE FOR $600 REPORTING THRESHOLD FOR PAYPAL, CASH APP, OTHERS

 * 
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * 

The IRS recently announced that it would delay the $600 reporting threshold on
platforms like PayPal, eBay, Etsy, Venmo, and Cash App until 2025. For the 2025
filing season (which includes transactions completed in 2024), the new reporting
threshold will be $5,000 in business transactions to help phase in the $600
reporting threshold that was enacted under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021.

E-commerce companies will be required to report payments on 1099-K forms to the
IRS and send a copy to individual customers with more than $5,000 in gross
business transactions to help them record income on their tax returns and report
these transactions appropriately. The IRS will continue to use the current
$20,000 and 200 transaction thresholds for reporting for the upcoming filing
season (2024).

Controversial lower reporting threshold delayed again

The $600 threshold that was included in the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 was
delayed for the first time in December 2022. At the time, opponents of the
measure cited concerns regarding the timeline of implementation and confusion
for taxpayers. The 2022 delay was meant to allow more time for taxpayers to
understand how the new reporting threshold applies and for tax preparers and
software providers to ensure they have the information necessary to assist
taxpayers.

The most recent delay comes as fears of unsuspecting taxpayers receiving the
form and not knowing which transactions required reporting mounted. The IRS was
anticipating 44 million 1099-K forms, an increase of about 30 million forms
under the original $600 reporting threshold from the American Rescue Plan.

More time for taxpayers, preparers, and the IRS

Consumers and small casual sellers who were anticipating to receive the
information return for the first time will have another year to prepare for the
lower threshold and understand which transactions must be reported. Tax
preparers will have more time to ensure they understand the new rules to
effectively assist taxpayers.

Leading up to the 2024 filing season, companies were building up their resources
and systems to support the increased volumes of 1099-k forms expected under the
new threshold. They now have an additional year and more time still before the
$600 threshold takes effect.

The IRS will also make changes to its annual income tax return form and
schedules. Updating the form is complex and will take time, and the delay allows
for additional feedback.

Additional changes possible; feedback requested

There is a possibility that Congress will draft legislation to raise the
threshold or push for additional changes to the ruling, but the IRS wanted to
make the change to benefit taxpayers. The $5,000 threshold was chosen after
discussions with IRS employees, and the IRS is inviting feedback on the $5,000
threshold for tax year 2024 and other elements of the reporting requirement.

Our national tax practice will continue to monitor updates to the 1099-k
reporting threshold as well as other guidance from the IRS. Fill out the form on
