Yes, they do. They're required to. If you meant some sort of bill pay via mail through your bank, they send it too.
Do some research.

LOL. I got sent a 1099-INT for $11 worth of interest in an account.

The IRS (and plenty of private entities) have access to every one of your transactions. Who from Mississippi bought a coffee near DC on Jan 6 2021? Bank of America told the feds.

The feds have the data, whether they examine it or not and choose to charge you doesn't mean it's not happening. Fed Gov operates how the Chinese steal data; it may not have value now, but maybe it'll turn into something we can use later.

Banking regs, at least as I've seen in one bank, are thousands of pages long, and probably 14' high worth of binders. That was before Dodd-Frank, and the latest BS.

It started Jan 1. Pretty early for a 1099. I think you are confused.

There were plenty of "woke" ( I hate the term) companies willing to give up info on the Jan peaceful demonstration.

Again, do some research on Zelle.

If you buy a car for $20,000 and sell it later for $10,000 you do not have a gain to report. If you buy a car for $10,000 and sell it for $12,000 you are taxed on the $2,000 gain.

Personal transactions are exempt from repoerting. Different from sales of merchandise or property.

Are you paying an individual?


There should be an option for “payment between friends”

What if you buy a bike for $5000 and sell it for $2000, but don't have the receipt to prove your cost basis? Do you have to keep every receipt you get?

If you buy a bike for $5K I’m guessing you paid with some traceable means.

If you paid with cash…

The IRS is supposed to be issuing regs on how to handle these situations.

As an aside. I go on a 16 person trip each year. One guy puts everything on his card and we all Venmo him when done - about $2000 each. How will that work?

Keep receipts and zero it out if you get a 1099. Going forward, change the way you pay for your trip.

This is an FAQ the IRS published for the 2022 tax year before enforcement was delayed. It includes various scenarios discussed in this thread. I would expect an updated FAQ sometime before the 2023 tax filing period.

I sell sports cards on the side on Ebay. My guess is that the rule gets delayed again due to it being an election year. Plus, there are lobbyists actively working this. You know Congress love to appease the lobbyists.

When you get to the actual “pay” page where thetransaction is completed, there is a slide button that says “purchases” or something like that. Toggle to ON and it’ll get reported is what I’m thinking

Problem with NOT having it “on” comes on if you’re making a purchase that you want covered with buyer protection of some sort.

If I wasn’t tech challenged I’d post a pic For you.

only applies to purchases of goods and services. You know how when you send money via venmo it asks you if this is for a purchase? This is why, if you say NO, it won't be part of the threshhold for the seller.


This is inaccurate. I get 1099s from PayPal and Venmo every year as I have more than 20k in sales on each platform.

The 1099 is gross receipts of all money that comes into your account. It includes both goods and services payments and friends and family transactions. There is no distinction.

You better have support. PayPal has pretty good reports to segregate everything out but Venmo does not.

Individuals are not allowed to declare losses when selling personal assets.

That's been the tax law for decades, nothing new here.
So, hypothetical here.

If I sell my 10 year old 4 wheeler for $2,000, I’m gonna get a fricking 1099 for it? Even though I paid $7,000 for it back then and paid sales taxes on it.
