Below-threshold income can still be taxable, state reporting thresholds can be lower, and marketplaces can issue Form 1099-K even below the federal TPSO threshold.
What this checker does
The current federal TPSO threshold is based on gross payments and transaction count, not net profit after fees, shipping, refunds, item cost, or supplies. Use gross marketplace payment totals when checking the federal reporting trigger.
The IRS notes that the reporting threshold does not decide whether income is taxable. Sellers still need complete records for gross sales, marketplace fees, cost of goods, shipping, refunds, and other deductions.
