i've never heard of anyone having to pay taxes on this site. not unless you make a TON of money i'm guessing. most of us don't need to do that, even if you cash out $100 i'm sure you'll be fine. don't be worried by it, i've cashed out 6 times already and i've never had to pay any taxes.

Hey guys....Do we need to pay taxes on the money we make on FC?
A member on Fushioncash is considered an independent contractor.  If you make $600.00 or over in a year, you will receive a 1099 form to submit when you file your federal income taxes.  I'm not a tax expert by far and if anyone has any pertinent information to add to this posting, please do so.

I don't know how much you make a year to file tax.  But I know it's will tax you if you make more than amount of money.  You should find out by the admin.

Not positive, but I believe you only have to pay taxes on  $500. + per year.

Yes, you are automatically sent a 1099 Form from FusionCash if you earn more than $600 in a year, which you will need to file when doing your taxes. I received my 1099 a few weeks ago and already filed. Legally, you are supposed to report any extra earnings made during the tax year but companies like FusionCash are only required to send 1099's etc on earnings of more than $600.

You need to pay taxes on all income earned regardless of how much you make.

Not true.  If you don't make enough, you don't have to pay taxes.

According to the IRS website, it's $400 instead of $600.  These types of sites count as "self-employed".  Has it changed from $600?

http://www.irs.gov/individuals/article/0,,id=96623,00.html

To determine if you need to file a Federal Income Tax return for 2010 answer the following questions:

Occasionally, individuals have one-time or infrequent financial transactions that may require them to file a Federal Income Tax return. Do any of the following examples apply to you?

Did you have Federal taxes withheld from your pension and wages for this tax year and wish to get a refund back?
Are you entitled to the Earned Income Tax Credit or did you receive Advance Earned Income Credit for this tax year?
Were you self-employed with earnings of more than $400.00?
Did you sell your home?
Will you owe any special tax on a qualified retirement plan (including an individual retirement account (IRA) or medical savings account (MSA)? You may owe tax if you:
Received an early distribution from a qualified plan
Made excess contributions to your IRA or MSA
Were born before July 1, 1939, and you did not take the minimum required distribution from your qualified retirement plan.
Received a distribution in the excess of $160,000 from a qualified retirement plan.
Will you owe social security and Medicare tax on tips you did not report to your employer?
Will you owe uncollected social security and Medicare or Railroad retirement (RRTA) tax on tips you reported to your employer?
Will you be subject to Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT)? (The tax law gives special treatment to some kinds of income and allows special deductions and credit for some kinds of expenses.)
Will you owe recapture tax?
Are you a church employee with income in wages of $108.28 or more from a church or qualified church-controlled organization that is exempt from employer social security or Medicare taxes?

I think you are correct I remember reading that when Paypal announced that they would be submitting forms to the Gov't if you earned a certain amount....$600.00 or more in a year there are some who do that on this site It is each individual's responsibility for their taxes. :wave:

It actually it is true.  All income is subject to federal income tax.  The $400 dollar limit is for self-employment tax, which is an additional tax.  That limit has been $400 for as long as I can remember.  

Filing requirements and actual taxes owed will depend on one's own circumstances, but all income is subject to Federal Income tax.

And if/when you end up in a situation where you need one of the FREE services they tell you that you've made too much and it's all b/c of the extra penny you found that they made you put on your taxes  ;) But in all seriousness yes, it is unfortunate that some people manage to get stuff FREE left and right but others who you know are struggling "make too much" are "overqualified" etc etc. :wave:

I believe they changed it to $400.00 this year, which used to be $600.00 If I'm not mistaken PayPal is if you withdrawal more than $400.00 a year they will turn it in. Just something we all need to learn more about cause they change so many things each year. My mother completes other people's taxes so I leave it all up to her when she completes mine. :) She can keep up on all those changes better than I can.

You have always had to pay self employment tax if you made more than $400 in a year from self-employment.  The $600 figure has to do with the filing of 1099's, which is something different.  None of that has changed.

if you read tax laws you are to report any income you have. including if you have a garage sale or if you sell your stuff on eBay that is all income. if you are unsure keep track of you stuff and ask a tax preparer when you do your taxes.

When it comes down to it, this is typically considered incidental income.  Like having a garage sale, etc.   Now, if reaches a certain threshold, and you are 1099'd, it is expected to be taxed.  (20yrs experience in finance)  :)

Everything that you report on your taxes is voulentarily reported by you. The fact that you even file taxes is voulenteered by you. NOW---That being said----Keep in mind that IF you work and they send you a W2 OR a 1099 at the end of the year, then they have already reported that amount to the IRS on your behalf. Sooooo when and IF you choose to file your taxes, then you better report everything that has already been reportd to them.

Fushion Cash will REQUIRE you to fill out tax information papers after you earn $600. However I do not know IF that is $600 TOTAL, or $600 in any given year. I think it should be $600 in any given year, but you can check with support on that.

My question to you is---IF you find a penny on the street and pick it up, are you going to report that on your taxes?? I know that I AM NOT!! The dammed government would just take and give it to some foreign government, and illegal alien, some lazy *bleep* who won't work, or some Washington burearecrat!! :BangHead: :BangHead:

Taxes were only supposed to be a temporary thing... but greedy politicians continued it. It was only supposed to help during the Civil War here in America, in 1860/61 I think. Also when it was put into "law" at the time it was not meant for everyone, it was only at the time a small percentage like 2-3% of Americans who made over a certain amount of money, I think the amount was like $900.00. It was supposed to end, when the war ended, since it was only supposed to help with the war effort. Within 5 years of the tax being put into action, they had collected over 300 million. Now here is the thing to think about... if they collected OVER 300 million, in 5 years time, just by collecting from Americans who made like $900.00, and they were only collecting a itsy bitsy percentage... just HOW much do they collect now? Seriously think about it... I can not even fathom the amount the government collects from us Americans now... our hard earned money, yet our country is on the verge of bankruptcy so to speak? Ok I am done, LOL. I usually don't get this "educational" on here, but I actually was looking this stuff up a few weeks ago, when a friend of mine and I were talking about taxes LOL. I had told my friend about this, without the "facts", just told from what I remembered from learning long, long ago. Anyway I went online to show my friend the "facts" cuz he did not believe it was originally supposed to be a temporary thing.

This is incorrect. There is no $ figure per source.  They look at things in aggregate, so any income, from any source is reportable regardless of how much it is.
