Form ST 131815 Sellers Report of Sales Tax Due on a Casual 2015

The IRS doesn't validate it. Selling at the farmer's market is a good way to earn cash that nobody knows about.They don't waster resources going after farmer's market sellers. The amounts are so small that they probably wold not be taxed.You self report. I'd do it on Form 1040, Sched. C.  If it's a small amount, as misc income.

In most situations, a person who is physically present in the United States for at least 183 days out of any calendar year is a US resident for tax purposes and must file Form 1040 as a tax resident. There are exceptions to this general rule, but none of them apply to people who are present in the United States in H-1B (guest worker) status. Furthermore, H-1B workers are categorically resident aliens for tax purposes and must pay taxes on the income they earn while in H-1B status as a resident alien in every year in which they earn more than the personal exemption limit. This includes both the first year and last year, even if the first or last year contains less than 183 days of residence in the United States. The short years may result in a filing as a “dual-status” alien.An H-1B worker will therefore only file Form 1040NR as his or her primary tax return in the tax year in which he or she leaves the United States permanently, and all US-connected income during that year will be taxed as if the taxpayer was a US resident, under the dual-status rules. All other tax returns during that person’s residence in the United States will be on Form 1040. The first year’s return may be under dual-status rules, with a Form 1040NR attached as a “dual status statement” as per the procedure in Chapter 6 of Publication 519 (2016), U.S. Tax Guide for Aliens. A person who resides the entire year in the United States in H-1B status may not use Form 1040NR, and is required to pay US income tax on his or her worldwide income, excepting only that income which is subject to protection under a tax treaty.See Publication 519 (2016), U.S. Tax Guide for Aliens for more information. The use of a tax professional, especially in the first and last year of H-1B status, is highly recommended as completing a dual-status return correctly is exceedingly challenging.

Taxes can be viewed as having 4 uses (or purposes) in our (and most) governments:Revenue generation (to pay for public services).Fiscal policy control (e.g., If the government wishes to reduce the money supply in order to reduce the risk of inflation, they can raise interest rates, sell fewer bonds, burn money, or raise taxes. In the last case, this represents excess tax revenue over the actual spending needs of the government).Wealth re-distribution. One argument for this is that the earnings of a country can be perceived as belonging to all of its citizens since the we all have a stake in the resources of the country (natural resources, and intangibles such as culture, good citizenship, civic duties). Without some tax policy complexity, the free market alone does not re-distribute wealth according to this "shared" resources concept. However, this steps into the boundary of Purpose # 4...A way to implement Social Policy (and similar government mandated policies, such as environmental policy, health policy, savings and debt policy, etc.). As Government spending can be use to implement policies (e.g., spending money on public health care, environmental cleanup, education, etc.), it is equivalent to provide tax breaks (income deductions or tax credits) for the private sector to act in certain ways -- e.g., spend money on R&D, pay for their own education or health care, avoid spending money on polluting cars by having a higher sales tax on these cars or offering a credit for trade-ins [ref: Cash for Clunkers]).Uses # 1 & 2 are rather straight-forward, and do not require a complex tax code to implement. Flat income and/or consumption (sales) taxes can easily be manipulated up or down overall for these top 2 uses. Furthermore, there is clarity when these uses are invoked. For spending, we publish a budget. For fiscal policy manipulation, the official economic agency (The Fed) publishes their outlook and agenda.Use # 3 is controversial because there is no Constitutional definition for the appropriate level of wealth re-distribution, and the very concept of wealth re-distribution is considered by some to be inappropriate and unconstitutional. Thus, the goal of wealth re-distribution is pretty much hidden in with the actions and policies of Use #4 (social policy manipulation).Use # 4, however, is where the complexity enters the Taxation system. Policy implementation through taxation (or through spending) occurs via legislation. Legislation (law making) is inherently complex and subject to gross manipulation by special interests during formation and amendments. Legislation is subject to interpretation, is prone to errors (leading to loopholes) and both unintentional or intentional (criminal / fraudulent) avoidance.The record keeping and forms referred to in the question are partially due to the basic formula for calculating taxes (i.e., percentage of income, cost of property, amount of purchase for a sales tax, ...). However, it is the complexity (and associated opportunities for exploitation) of taxation legislation for Use # 4 (Social Policy implementation) that naturally leads to complexity in the reporting requirements for the tax system.

First, the LLC operates as tax partnership (“TP”) as the default tax status if no election has been made as noted in Treasury Regulation Section 301.7701-3(b)(i). For legal purposes, we have a LLC. For tax purposes we have a tax partnership. Since we are discussing a tax issue here, we will discuss the issue from the perspective of a TP.A partner cannot under any circumstances be an employee of the TP as Revenue Ruling 69-184 dictated such. And, the 2016 preamble to Temporary Treasury Regulation Section 301.7701-2T notes the Treasury still supports this revenue ruling.Though a partner can engage in a transaction with the TP in a non partner capacity (Section 707a(a)).A partner receiving a 707(a) payment from the partnership receives the payment as any stranger receives a payment from the TP for services rendered. This partner gets treated for this transaction as if he/she were not a member of the TP (Treasury Regulation Section 1.707-1(a).As an example, a partner owns and operates a law firm specializing in contract law. The TP requires advice on terms and creation for new contracts the TP uses in its business with clients. This partner provides a bid for this unique job and the TP accepts it. Here, the partner bills the TP as it would any other client, and the partner reports the income from the TP client job as he/she would for any other client. The TP records the job as an expense and pays the partner as it would any other vendor. Here, I am assuming the law contract job represents an expense versus a capital item. Of course, the partner may have a law corporation though the same principle applies.Further, a TP can make fixed payments to a partner for services or capital — called guaranteed payments as noted in subsection (c).A 707(c) guaranteed payment shows up in the membership agreement drawn up by the business attorney. This payment provides a service partner with a guaranteed payment regardless of the TP’s income for the year as noted in Treasury Regulation Section 1.707-1(c).As an example, the TP operates an exclusive restaurant. Several partners contribute capital for the venture. The TP’s key service partner is the chef for the restaurant. And, the whole restaurant concept centers on this chef’s experience and creativity. The TP’s operating agreement provides the chef receives a certain % profit interest but as a minimum receives yearly a fixed $X guaranteed payment regardless of TP’s income level. In the first year of operations the TP has low profits as expected. The chef receives the guaranteed $X payment as provided in the membership agreement.The TP allocates the guaranteed payment to the capital interest partners on their TP k-1s as business expense. And, the TP includes the full $X guaranteed payment as income on the chef’s K-1. Here, the membership agreement demonstrates the chef only shares in profits not losses. So, the TP only allocates the guaranteed expense to those partners responsible for making up losses (the capital partners) as noted in Treasury Regulation Section 707-1(c) Example 3. The chef gets no allocation for the guaranteed expense as he/she does not participate in losses.If we change the situation slightly, we may change the tax results. If the membership agreement says the chef shares in losses, we then allocate a portion of the guaranteed expense back to the chef following the above treasury regulation.As a final note, a TP return requires knowledge of primary tax law if the TP desires filing a completed an accurate partnership tax return.I have completed the above tax analysis based on primary partnership tax law. If the situation changes in any manner, the tax outcome may change considerably. www.rst.tax

I wrote this as a response to an article, but here it might be better.I see this decision as creating a bunch of problems.There are over 10,000 sales tax jurisdictions in the United States. Most of the states (~45) have a sales tax. In many states, cities and counties can add their own sales tax.First problem: city boundaries are not necessarily the same as mailing addresses. You can have a mailing address of a city, but not actually live in that city (meaning you can’t vote in the city’s elections, etc).Second problem: there are exempt goods. Food is often exempt from sales taxes, but sometimes snack food is taxed. In Connecticut, for instance, groceries are not taxed. If I buy a bag of chips at the deli, it’s taxed. If I buy 10 bags of the same chips at the grocery store, it’s not taxed. So for each geographical area, you’ll need to determine if that particular good is exempt from taxation.Third problem: changing rates. Tax rates change all the time. Many states have a tax free week (often in August, near back to school times), so you need to know that.Now, for the above, a brick and mortar store would know what municipality it was in, so it would need to deal with only one schedule, not 10,000+. They know when the tax holiday is, and what’s taxed and not taxed.But there’s a fundamental unfairness that the new tax has introduced. If I go to a store in New Hampshire and buy a refrigerator, and have it delivered to my house, there’s no sales tax. However, if I go online to the store’s site and order the same thing, that’s now taxed. When I go to a brick-and-mortar merchant, they only charge where they are, not where I live. But an online merchant needs to be aware of all these things.There are going to be probably two to four software producers for online merchants to process sales tax, and my bet is that they’ll charge more than the tax collected, at least for small to mid size businesses. Any business online that sells stuff is going to need to subscribe to a service to keep all these tax rates and how to calculate and where to send. It’s going to signNowly curtail online commerce among smaller merchants, forcing them to go through someplace like Amazon or through a sales tax calculation service, which will probably charge several dollars or percentage points per transaction. We have a super complicated sales tax structure in the United States, and now every online merchant has to conform with 10,000 constantly changing laws and rates.
