1099-K Reporting

The 1099-K forms is used by third-party settlement companies or even by institutions (including well-known payment platforms and marketplaces on the internet) to help keep the track of transactions for firms with an annual turnover of more than $20,000 and must record at least 200 transactions in a calendar year. These forms usually are released each year on or before March 31.

 Delaying and reducing

In the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 the threshold was lowered to $600 in gross payments while the threshold to determine the number of transactions was eliminated completely. However, implementation of the lower threshold was frequently delayed until 2022 and again in 2023. So, the question is, what's on the horizon in 2024?

Scoop by 2024. Scoop by 2024

The last quarter of 2013 the IRS nearly wiped out the threshold, which was set at $600 but they settled on a non-definite threshold of $5 000 and did not provide any evidence regarding the number of transactions. The IRS claims it is taking a slow approach to implementation of the threshold but that's not something we can rely on. What we do know is the threshold to be reported in 2024 is $5,500 throughout the duration of the program.

It's an enormous change from the prior policy that demanded transactions to be between $20,000 and $200 that was more applicable to a larger number of merchants than before.

What does this mean to Sellers

In 2023, sellers had submit 1099-K reports in the event that they had over 20k in total payments with more than 200 transactions. When the threshold is reduced to $5,000 by 2024, it is expected to raise the number of sellers receiving this form. It is estimated that more than 50% of sellers are likely to receive this report in the beginning.
