Do We Have To Pay Taxes On Here?

in #crypto7 years ago

Sorry if this is a stupid question. But in most cases anytime you're getting in come, you have to pay taxes. I am wondering do you have to do it with Crypto? Or with Steemit do you have you fill out the W9 form ( for US) when you pass a certain amount. That's one thing I have been thinking about. And sorry if this has been asked already.

Sort:  

You have to report your profits as income and then pay capital gains tax. You have to always pay taxes on all income, whether or not you get a W9.

honestly I do not know how to do that. I have never even dealt with taxes before.

You can use a service like TurboTax or H&R Block and they will make it really easy for you - they walk you through step by step asking you questions about various potential sources of income for which you would have to pay taxes - takes about 30 minutes and you don't need to worry about knowing the laws since they took care of all of that for you.
