You can download your Tax invoice in Seller Hub. Here's how: Go to the Payments tab - opens in new window or tab in Seller Hub. From the menu on the left, select Reports. Select the Invoices tab. You'll see the list of available Tax invoices by month. To download a report for a specific month, select Summary Download or Detail Download. Dont yiu think ive been all over that man. I have an anchor store. Ive done this and my taxes for years. I now what i need. I can look at invoices by m nth. Too bad sales tax isnt on there. Im off nearly 2k from what was reported on the 1099 and i manually accounted for sales. The more detsiled reports are 90 days. The normal invoices you are talking about are the ssme ones they always have. This past year paypal and managed payments are mixed and this causes the problems. If you dont sell bulk like i do and fill out your own complicated tax forms for it then you wouldnt understand. I did manage to find a csv file for detail for 2020 but its only the period with managed payments. No data pre september for that even though i requested 12 months. What you are suggesting ive already been done and went through. I know what im doing dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrWunderful | 2,926 Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 If it makes you guys feel any better, I hear eBay is developing a new 500$ million dollar campus. Not verified, but its the word on the street. Probably with all those sweet, sweet paypal fees they are saving Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy_Bogomil | 810 Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 As much as eBay fees suck, I still make more from selling on the platform than locally and it's been smooth sailing lately with sales. Way less trouble than selling though local online platforms. It is rough though looking as the total monthly/yearly fees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BreaKBeatZ | 136 Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 I was just looking at eBay, and noticed that I am going to get a 1099 for having $600 or more aggregate sales in 2021 since I live in Maryland. That's a hell of a lot lower than the $20,000 limit from PayPal. Has this been discussed already somewhere else, because I'd love to hear people's opinions about it and if there's a way I can switch back to using PayPal to receive payments and avoid this.

Also, only applying the standard to ebay's new payments and not Amazon, or any other only distributor seems specific. A number of states have set lower bars that force a 1099-K to be generated, and force the companies to share the 1099-K to the state. It was news to me, too, this year, when I found out that VA had set a threshold of $600 for generating the form. It isn't just eBay, it is any online service that falls within the $20k / 200 transaction rule (that we MOSTLY associated with Paypal, though the IRS rules are written more generically) EDIT: and the 1099K represents state income to be taxed, as well, not just federal. If you're in a zero-income-tax state, though, you'd be forgiven for being blissfully unaware of the distinction Edited March 17, 2021 by arch_8ngel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cromag27 | 46 Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 the 1099k is only to report transactions processed via card (ebay, paypal, venmo, etc). it has nothing to do with owning a business or sales tax. it’s designed to keep business owners honest, but it now effects all of us who just want to sell personal items. yeah it sucks.

I only made 7k on ebay last year. i had to do all of paypal by hand this year. I have 2 stores currently. one on managed payments and another started last april on paypal still. They never invited me to managed payments on there so I didnt bother. The managed payments took over most of my sales from september-december last year. But I still had 50k on paypal with 3600 transactions. Went to get my 1099 on their site which Ive done every year for years. No tax data for 2020. They dont have a 1099 for me. I have to claim it its a business. But now I have no number to compare mine to. Had to sift through multiple different report printouts to get accurate sales numbers. I like getting their number because usually my personal calculation and theirs will be different by the amount in paypal fees making it easy to figure out. Had to rough guess paypal fees this year. By rough guess, I mean hope that sales data I had times .029 was an accurate figure and then add .30 cents times the 3600 transactions. Not having the 1099 makes me nervous.

I did some poking, found this so far of those who already screw their citizens (knew of MA from a friend) Vermont, Massasschusetts, Virginia, DC, Mississippi, and Maryland. $600 in gross payment value over a year. Illinois is $1000 over 4 sales and New Jersey is $1000 overall. $2500 in Arkansas. DAMNIT...fucking democrats and their taxing. I was going to ask where'd you find this, but I did some digging. That asshole in chief Biden signed it into law this month. I guess I'm done using ebay for sales 12/31 of this year. I refuse to pay taxes on an item I already paid taxes on to buy it in the first place. I'll just use facebook, cash only. I wonder if I'll need to terminate my paypal account too, since they'll happily rat me out too if I have more than $600 injected into the account from 'goods and services' as well. Seems if you go along with it, you're hit with the 15.3% self employment tax rate. American Rescue Plan Act Clarifies Scope of Form 1099-K Reporting and Reduces De Minimis Threshold Section 9674(a) of the ARPA changes the de minimis threshold for Form 1099-K reporting for TPSOs. (No de minimis threshold applies with respect to payment card transactions.) Currently, the de minimis rule under section 6050W(e) provides that a TPSO is required to report on Form 1099-K with respect to third party network transactions of any participating payee only if (1) the amount that would otherwise be reported exceeds $20,000, and (2) the aggregate number of transactions exceeds 200. The new law replaces this two-step de minimis standard with a single $600 reporting threshold effective for 2022. Accordingly, a single transaction for more than $600 settled through a TPSO will now be reportable as will multiple transactions that total more than $600.
