    If you made over $20,000 and had more than 200 transactions they will send you a 10-99. If not, you can go to a tax professional with your statements (if you have them). Or get your years statements from PayPal and it will tell you how much you maid during the year, how much you sent out in payments, and how much you paid in PayPal fees, along with some other information.

    Income from PayPal? They pay me 1% on all my purchases made with my debit card. If they paid me more than $600 I assume they will send me a 10-99 - I should check and see how much I made last year from PayPal themselves.

    Otherwise, for income paid to you by others via PayPal, well you need to declare all your income when you file your taxes. How you are paid, be it cash, check, wire, PayPal, it makes no difference. It is up to you to accurately report your income, calculate your deductions and pay any tax due on the taxable amount of income. So I have affiliate companies that have paid me a lot of money and then send me the tax form not PayPal. PayPal is merely a conduit for being paid, the party paying you is the one who you will get a tax form from, or should, if the amount is above the legal threshold.

    It is always your own responsibility to report your income on your taxes.

    Who is asking you to pay taxes? Do you even live in the US? If not, why are you paying or worrying about paying any US taxes?
