Side Hustle & Gig Income
“Is my Venmo side hustle income subject to taxes?”
Venmo side hustle income is often treated as taxable, but the exact treatment depends on what the payments were for, whether the activity looks like a hobby or a business, and how the transactions were recorded. Personal transfers are generally different from money received for goods, services, or freelance work, and the way Venmo categorizes the activity can matter. Other factors, such as related expenses, records of payments, and whether any reporting forms were issued, can also affect the outcome. Sitting down with a CPA for thirty minutes is usually enough to draw a clean line on this.
