I get a check and then I walk into a bank to cash it - makes me feel like I accomplished something by actually touching the money. I do other sites that only use paypal which I am good with.

I would rather not have to get out and go to the bank. I like the money shows up in PP and I transfer it to my bank account and never have to leave home. Heck I do not even have to leave home to spend the money.

Not sure why anyone would choose a check over Paypal. As soon as I get the notification from Paypal, I transfer it to my bank. Nothing to get lost in the mail or forgotten. Don't have to waste time and money going to the bank. The sooner it gets into my savings account, the sooner it starts building interest.

I don't always transfer immediately.  I do several sites that pay in to PayPal so I like to wait until I get a little in there or maybe do it once a month.  I hope they don't start charging a fee for the transfer.

Don't you get tax write-offs if you run a business?  IF so, wouldn't that cancel it out.  Not sure on this anyone?

Only if you have legitimate business expenses, but it wouldn't cancel it out.

It's just easier for me to have it sent to Paypal and then transfer the funds to my banking account.

How to you get your money? I don't want a 1099 so how do I prevent that?

Hello! :D :)

I prefer PayPal as a way to get paid online as it is so convenient. I wish all my online jobs pay me that way as it would be a lot simpler. I consider PayPal as my third bank and I love it. :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose:

It doesn't matter how you get paid. It won't avoid a 1099 if you make over $600. I always get Paypal regardless.

                                                        I am not real sure what you are asking but I very much doubt earning money on a GPT site like FC is qualified as running a business and therefore would not count as a tax credit.

   I much prefer PayPal to a snail mail paper check.   I do get a check from a couple of sites that don't do PayPal.   Like others have posted it does not matter how you are paid, if you make $600 or more in a year on any one site, you'll have to fill out a 1099 form.   Personally I have never made over $600 a year here or on any other site.

 I Gadd my fusion cash money by direct deposit. It comes like clockwork and sometimes even earlier than a check.  :present: :peace: :wave:
