majax79 Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 If someone was a professional poker player, how would they report their employment, self-employed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SurveyBang Posted June 6, 2009 Report Share Posted June 6, 2009 depends..did they win their money 'under the table' ? Or did a legitimate site or tourney pay that person? Companies are required to report income paid to individuals over 600 a fiscal year. Hence they may require your SSN to accesss the site or winnings.

SurveyBang Posted June 6, 2009 Report Share Posted June 6, 2009 Case in point...wesley snipes. he isnt a poker player but he didnt pay taxes because he didnt think he had to. The government didnt think they needed to let him be free for 1-3 years too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majax79 Posted June 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 um, ok. Legit website. Would they say self-employed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SurveyBang Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 did the poker sight send you any irs form to file when you do your taxes? They are required to follow their money when they report their taxes hence the IRS figures out you won X amount from that site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
