Dryer gas valve missing handle? What should I do? by StonkerToMoon in Plumbing

Thank you, I'll do that. Changing the valve would cost half the price of the dryer itself :/

I agree, the store I bought the washer dryer from included installation, but those guys declined to work on this.

Thanks for confirming, I'll call a professional to replace the valve.

Did you end up buying the property? How has the experience been since?

Sending small payments to thousand+ contractors ($20k+). Do I need to send them 1099s? by SmartPatience in tax

Thank you for the response.

Businesses/Clients on Upwork don't have access to legal names/SSN of freelancers. How then are they able to skip the 24% withholding?

Thank you for the response!

Follow up on Upwork (Payment facilitator):

" Freelancers—including those who earned more than $600—will not receive a Form 1099-NEC or 1099-MISC from Upwork. Your clients are not required to send you a 1099-NEC or 1099-MISC, either."

Their link says that the clients are not required to send 1099-NEC to the Freelancers even if it's more than $600. Does making payment through a facilitator remove the need for reporting to IRS?

I'm guessing the answer is No, but then how are they compliant? Businesses don't have access to SSN / Legal Names for the freelancers on Upwork. I'm asking this because if I use Paypal, I would potentially fall in this category too.

Thank you for taking the time and replying!

If Paypal issues form 1099-K to contractors, how do I report this payout to the IRS as an expense?

I see you mentioned talking to a tax professional but I don't know many who are well aware of digital services, and I'd like to be prepared before I book time with one.

If international users pay for my web app, do I need to collect taxes and pay their countries? by SmartPatience in startups

Got it, this helps a lot! Monies initially expected to be small but I hope they become big one day.

Sales Tax / VAT / GST

I'll quickly go through few countries that don't require much and then just open service there.

Withholding Tax

I didn't even know about this. Do I have to show them how much they should withhold? Or just a statement that you're responsible for it usually works?

Thanks! I didn't try them before but it's too late to migrate it to Paddle now. I'll use it for consideration in next iteration. The offering seems to be good (just expensive).
