What do I do if I can’t file my taxes by the October 15 extended deadline?
มุมมอง 21314 วันที่ผ่านมา
If you were granted a tax extension with the IRS earlier this year, time is running out to get your taxes filed before the extension deadline. If you don’t file before October 15, you can rack up severe penalties and fees that increase the longer you delay. So what happens if you still can’t file or pay? If you’re in a position where you’re up against the deadline and don’t know what to do, you...

Cashing out crypto is a taxable event! We break down everything in our crypto tax guide: gordonlaw.com/crypto-taxes-how-to-report/

Okay thank you
Under what is not taxable it says Giving or receiving crypto as a gift (within limits) What does the within limits part means Because I won a giveaway and the rewards is 10,000 USD going to my crypto wallet On the website it said holding onto that USD will not be taxable but it says receiving the crypto isn't either ‼️within limits‼️what does the Website mean by that
do i need to file taxes even though i did not make a profit?
Always report! If you took losses, they could be used to help you in the future!
How does the gifter determine the cost basis when gifting only a fraction of their bitcoin holdings that were purchased on multiple dates? FIFO? Is HIFO an option?
The IRS recognizes FIFO and Specific ID

Correction! 10% of $11,600 is $1,160 not $1,600.

If you didn't make $600 in 1099-MISC. As a matter of fact, Coinbase only shows a single number for, say, rewards. A) Do we need to file 1099-MISC, and B) Which box does this number go into? Box 3: Other Income?
Coinbase will issue you a 1099 MISC, you don't file one. The 1099-MISC is actually not that useful for most cryptocurrency investors since it only involves certain transactions. Best to use software like Bitcoin.Tax or ZenLedger.io to create a full report
@@gordonlawltd Ya, I figured since then that this is no-entry form, especially when the crypto exchanges are using for a different purpose.
Great info and right to the point! thanks!
Hi Andrew, I was searching for a very long time for a video/help on how the Crypto Gift taxes work, but by far none have come close to what you have summarized in around 3 min. Thanks for the beautiful work and keep up the good work. Now, to my questions [Related to US] 1. In order to gift Cryptos, do I need to send crypto to my spouse's Wallet, or do I need to send a gift card? 2. Spouses can gift Cryptos Up to $16,000 per year to each other and dont have to report it. Allowed 16K per year per individual? If it's more than 16K that year, you'll need to fill out IRS Form 709. Provided you haven't exceeded the lifetime gift tax exemption of $11.7m (2021) or $12.06m (2022), you won't need to pay tax on gifting crypto. 3. The recipient of the gift may be subject to Capital Gains tax: e.g. If I [Sender] send 1ETH [$1,170] to my spouse, well under my 16K limit, and if she sells 1 ETH within 2 months for say $1,300, then she pays short-term capital gains tax on $1,200-$1,170 = $130 Is my understanding correct? 4. How are Stable Coins treated? Is it the same way as Cryptocurrencies? 5. Is it allowed that my spouse can take the crypto gift and convert it to a Cytpto Visa Debit Card and spend it? 6. Lastly, is there any template you have for record-keeping - Gift letter?
people may rip on Robinhood crypto but at least they send 1099 B for crypto sells
Hi, Very informative video, thanks for it. I would like to understand one scenario. Actually I from India and one of my relative stays in in US and i would like to give around 200 dollars worth of crypto to him. Could you please let me know how much tax he has to pay?

Is it a taxable event when you transfer crypto currencies between your own wallet? Thank you
We see this question all the time! Transferring crypto between your own wallets is NOT taxable. As long as the crypto remains with you, it is a transfer. BUT, gas fees might be taxable, and you can’t deduct gas fees for self-transfers. Take a look @cryptolawteam on TikTok. We answer a ton of questions on there.
@Danny Gas fees are treated like a "spend" or a sale of the ETH, generating a gain/loss.
I only have 5$ in miscellaneous income from rewards would I need to pay taxes on that ?? And iv'e only put it 20$ in crypto and haven"t sold anything
If you buy crypto and hodl, you do not have to report.
Thanks. When you say "accurate record keeping", I assume the information in the exchange (by exporting the CSV file) is sufficient? It seems to contain the pertinent information...
Something more in depth like writing down or using a spreadsheet would be great for record keeping.
@@gordonlawltd thanks for responding do quickly. The CSV file includes date, time, price, etc. Dumb question but is there any other other information one would need? I hoenstly cant think of any.
That all works!
What if I didn't sell, but I have miscellaneous earnings?
Those would be considered ordinary income. You may or may not receive a full report from exchanges like Coinbase, but the income needs to be fully reported.
@@gordonlawltd what if its just $22 dollars I didn't know about, and I already filed?
how do i report it if i didn't get it?
Check out our free, on-demand webinar Crypto Tax 101 for detailed instructions on how to report crypto: gordonlawltd.com/crypto-tax-101-register/
How do I generate a 8949 tax form?
The IRS has it on their website: www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f8949.pdf
what if the person or organization you give crypto to is a ministry or church?
If it's a qualified charity (501c3), that would be considered a donation rather than a gift; they're different for tax purposes. When you donate appreciated crypto (without converting it to anything else first), you won't be taxed on capital gains and it can also serve as a tax writeoff. Check out our Crypto Tax Guide for more info! ➡ gordonlawltd.com/crypto-tax-guide/
What if it's foreign?
If you're receiving gifts from someone outside the US and the total gift amount is $100,000 or more in a year, then a disclosure needs to be filed.
They sent me a form saying g they paid me 210k and they wont correct it th-cam.com/video/AmK2Mw5fkns/w-d-xo.html

Hi. What if a person who doesn't live in USA (non-resident) sends me frequently ( twice per month) an amount of Crypto (let's say a total of 4k a month). Do I have to report and pay that? (I am a US resident. )
Hi Gaiber, if the total gift amount is $100,000 or more in a year, then a disclosure needs to be filed.
What statute specific to crypto is the IRS enforcing?
There is no crypto law that is enforceable by the IRS, hell the SEC is still in litigation with Ripple for Clarity over whether Crypto is a currency or a security, that being said the IRS cannot arbitrarily decide it is either or outside of or Congress, the IRS is not a legislative body and has zero authority to enforce a law that does not exist
How does CB give you a form. I haven't received anything!

Crypto exchanges are required to produce a 1099 form if the the gross payments threshold exceeds $20,000. My question is: what is a considered a gross payment? If I buy $10,000 in BTC and then a few days later I sell that BTC for $10,001 have I exceeded the gross payment threshold of $20,000? or does only the sale of the asset count as gross payment?
You have the best crypto tax videos anywhere on TH-cam man
Thanks so much!
Greetings . What if i get 5 dollars of bitcoin for signing up in Coinbase but I leave the coin on the exchange and don’t cash it out . Would I haha to report that to the irs
That wouldn't be considered a gift, but rather ordinary income. You report the fair market value at the time of receipt.
Mark of the Bea$t if you ask me. Invest in this so that year’s later we can gather up capital gains tax after you lost everything on its sudden down fall, which is inevitably on its way.
But only transactions over $600 right?
There are different thresholds for when 1099s are issued based on what type of activity is being reported. In some cases the threshold is $600--but taxable income needs to be reported regardless of receiving the form or not.
Haahahaha listen to this guy 😂 he works for government…. If you don’t get 1099 it means they don’t have your records 😎 but they could find it if they try to…. Why do you think some crypto exchanges don’t send 1099 form ? They are not from this country and us can’t do Shit.
Hey, question for you. Do I receive 1099 form from coinbase if I sell or transfer Bitcoin? Thank you in advance
They don't have records YET. The IRS has so far sued Coinbase, Kraken, and Poloniex for customer records: gordonlawltd.com/kraken-irs-user-information/ The infrastructure bill making its way through Congress could also require exchanges to issue 1099-B to everyone.

Hello. I invested 5000 dollars then my money went up to 38,000 dollars. Now, the company told me that i should pay the 20% tax, then i paid it. The second time, the tripartite company is requiring 5% handling fee. Then i paid it.. The amount wasn't a joke, i borrowed it from my friends. Now the last is that they found that I am using a Thai account and so there's a need fro exchange rate fee required by the international bank. It's 8%. Is this really true? Well, the first time I've used it with small amount was good and the 2nd time as well. The money was returned to my bank account.. How is that now? Exchange rate fee/ withdrawal fee??
Hi, it's hard to know all of the details from a single comment but this sounds like a scam. No one is required to pay your crypto-related taxes except you; companies shouldn't be asking you for money to cover taxes.
@@gordonlawltd thank you for your reply. It says there that" the current account profit has reached the tax standard of the International Individual Income tax implementation regulations". And according to the regulations, i need to pay 20% to the platform. What do you think of this sir?
@@gideonfillag1575 We hear from people every day who've been scammed out of their crypto and they often mention very similar-sounding messages. /:
I know this video is over a year old, but how the HELL does someone get taxed over 40% if they where to actually make 1 million dollars from crypto? In the video you said the guy owed over 400k off of 1 million the irs thought he profited, which would mean he got taxed over 40%. So if I make a million on bitcoin, if i was a lucky and had money to invest, i would get taxed over 40%? This is unreal and highly unfair. If I am hearing this accurately. Where there any fees involved or is that how much millionaires get taxed normally?
Great question--it's the IRS penalties! When your tax liability isn't paid on time, the IRS assesses penalties and interest on top of the balance due, which can add up very quickly. That's why we always say deal with tax debt problems sooner rather than later. By showing our client's correct tax liability, we also significantly reduced those penalties.
