Hello, I had a tax question regarding plasma donation. My question is they are not required to give out a W2 or a 1099mc, how am I suppose to track how much money I have made in order to report to them?

Not A Product Question

Hi,

So the threshold for requirement of a 1099 is $600 or more in annual income. So if the income is $600 or more throughout the year, you are required to report it as taxable income.

If the plasma donation center does not provide a 1099, I suggest keeping track of your donations in an excel file or log. It is possible your plasma donation center may have records of your donations throughout the year, so I suggest contacting the donations center.

In addition, you may have bank deposits or checks you deposited that may provide you a record of those.

Thank you,

What happens if I miss calculate the # or add something wrong? It seems odd to me if I am required to pay taxes on it that they wouldn’t be forced to track it it?

If it is less than $600 annually, it is not required to be reported.

It is possible the IRS may send you a notice if you neglect to report income that is greater than $600 annually. You can sign up for Max Benefits at check-out when you pay your TurboTax fee, in which our third party, audit defense can help you address the notice.
