I would like to dispose of old cell phones and computers that are no longer turned on. I am concerned about the security of the personal information contained in them.

It depends on how important you think the information in the device is. If the information is not very important, you can usually just put it out with the trash. It is unlikely that others will see it. Also, the following URL may be helpful.

If you are concerned, try to find a company that specializes in disposal. My recommendation is to "first soak it in water" and then "physically destroy it" for cell phones, etc. For PCs, etc., I would remove the hard disk and "soak" it in water and then "physically destroy it".

I would like to file a tax return from Japan if possible, but we currently do not have a local address and have not received the necessary documents such as a w-2.
Is it possible to issue each of these as data on the web, etc. ?
Anyone who knows what to do, please advise. I would appreciate your advice.

Understood.

FYI, I have been a tax attorney in Los Angeles for over 20 years.


I have been asked to handle
tax returns for Hawaii residents who have seen this topic, and I handle
two - three such returns each year.

We apologize if we have offended you, but we would again
recommend that you do not ask these questions on the board, but instead ask your usual experts to
handle these matters.

Quick story.

Topix really has zero deciphering and comprehension skills.
I laughed and said, "He's so stupid!

He is a Citizen, but he has no English skills either, to the point of embarrassment.

His character is also rotten, which is the real reason he came to the board after being rejected by all the tax accountants, ostensibly because he was "busy.

In the pandemic, originally, crazy people are getting crazier and crazier, and Topix is one of them. We thank Tax Man for that.

Good morning

Tax man, I was wondering if that is true since you mentioned your experience in your story. One thing I was wondering is if it is true that if you have more than $10,000 in a Japanese bank, you have to declare it there as well ?.

tax man,
I don't need to explain any more to Topix.
Topi continues to ask questions without a word of apology for the misunderstanding.
Since you commented that you are consulting a tax accountant, it is better to pay him properly and gather the information yourself. tax man's time is wasted.

It is really disrespectful to taxman who spent time and made detailed and clear comments many times ( I am angry ) I feel bad.


tax man's comment was very helpful as I will be returning to Japan soon.
Your advice on the unemployment insurance topic was also really helpful. Thank you for all the help you have given us in our time of need. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

About the 1099-K form on the Etsy for sale site

Question
#1
  • Coral
  • mail
  • 2022/02/01 15:53

I set up my own store on the sales site Etsy in FY2021 and had sales of about $5000.
I had registered my tax information with Etsy to receive a 1099-K if I met the criteria, but when I looked at my account today in February, it said "You are not eligible for a 1099-K this year.
I thought that in the state of Hawaii, you have to have $600 or more to meet the criteria, but I guess I was mistaken.
If a 1099 is not eligible for a 1099, is it sufficient to provide the sales amount and expenses when requesting a tax return from the Accounting Service?

By the way, I have a GE license because I need it for another job and I have already paid my 2021 GETax for Etsy sales.

I have no idea about taxes, so I am asking here because I don't want to be missing any documents that I need to have in order before my tax return.
If anyone has the same condition or knows more about it, I would appreciate it if you could give me some advice.
Thank you in advance.

Please
refer to the following answers to your questions regarding web shopping sites.

Basically, the standard amount for a 1099 - K to take effect is $ 20 , 000 . 00 or more.
Please see the attached IRS explanation below.

The IRS requires each payment settlement entity to send you a Form 1099-K by January 31 if it has processed at least $ 20,000 worth of But you still could receive 1099-Ks from some PSEs even when the form isn't

In addition, $ 600 is the base amount for a 1099 - NEC to take effect.
See below.
If your business paid a contractor more than $ 600 in a tax year, you're required to file Form 1099-NEC.
However, if the independent However, if the independent contractor is registered as a C corporation or S corporation, a 1099-NEC will not be required.

If you are a web-based seller, you will need to report your sales and costs, as well as the expnses related to the operation of your site

when you file your taxes. Please use Excel or accounting software to manage your revenues and costs
.

For Etsy, you can log in to the site and download
a summary of your sales.

1099 - The K form is an IRS form that you use to report
your sales to the IRS for filing
.
If the actual sales amount and the reported amount match, there is no problem.

An internet site operator who, without knowing it, had not
reported any web sales, received a letter from the IRS requiring him to file a return and last year
asked him to prepare tax returns for the past three years. I had to pay a substantial late ( fine )

Hello.

For online buying and selling on Etsy, eBay, etc., $ 1099-K was issued for 20000+ sales or 200+ sales until last year, but this year it has changed to $ 600+ sales (without sales frequency setting), a much lower amount

I wasn't sure if I should post a direct link, so the following is an excerpt from eBay.

[Changes to the IRS minimum reporting threshold in 2022]
The IRS is lowering the Form 1099-K reporting threshold. January 1, 2022, IRS regulations require all businesses that process payments, including online marketplaces like eBay, to issue a Form 1099-K to sellers who receive $ If you receive more than $ 600 in gross payouts over the course of the 2022 calendar year, If you receive more than 600 in gross payouts over the course of the 2022 calendar year, we'll provide a Form 1099-K to you by January 31, 2023. Your 2021 tax obligations aren't affected by this change.

> but starting this year $ over 600 sales (no sales frequency setting) > and the amount has been changed to a much lower amount.

Again, back to the basic question on this topic.
> If a 1099 is not issued, when I ask Accounting Service for a Tax return, do I just tell them the sales
> amount and expenses, etc.?

The fact that the 1099 - K form is effective has nothing to do with your basic question about the tax return
issue.

1099 - There is no requirement to file a tax return because the K is effective or
not effective.

Etsy sales of $ 6000 have nothing to do with whether the form was
effective or not.

Whether you have $ or not, your income return is still
6000, so anyway, the basic principle is that there should be no
difference between the amount of the tax return and the fact that the form was effective. Please understand.

The return is filed on a 1040 Schedule C. The software asks
did you receive a 1099 - K ? and if you answer
that you did not receive a 1099 then it will say you received a cash or check payment . Did you receive payment by cash or check ?
?

Basically, the basic
question is how you received the income, and whether you received it on a 1099 - K or in cash makes no difference to your return or
the amount paid. I hope all
filers understand that it is not whether the form is in effect or not
but how much income you received as income that is the basis of your return.

Dear tax man
Thank you for your detailed and clear explanation.
I am relieved to hear that there is no problem as long as the actual sales amount and the declared amount match.
I understand that there was a case where I had to pay a considerable penalty for forgetting to file a tax return. In my case, the amount of sales is small, but I would like to continue to sell my products this year, so I will file my tax return so that there will be no mistake.
Thank you very much.

Mr. shell
Hello.
Thank you for the information !
I understand that a 1099 - K will be issued for sales this year over $ 600 when filing next year.
$ 20000 to $ 600 is quite a change.

I heard that Mako-san is getting married to that man within the year,
congratulations or not ? personally I can't say I'm honestly happy.

Mako is so single-minded that I didn't even hear the voices around me,
but I think it's never
a loss to see her boyfriend's true face after marriage.

If Mako knew
that there was no place for her to come back to at that time, I think she would understand her parents' feelings, who had opposed her for so long.
