I know that this form of question has been asked a bunch…but I have a different spin on it.
Let’s say you’re really making good consistent money in forex and withdrawing once a month…like say about 10-15k a month. Would you pay taxes on that money as it comes out of the account or once a year at tax time.
I ask because sometimes banks with large amounts of money(10k+) sometimes report it to the government if it’s fishy. So if someone was suddenly getting wired 10k or more a month would that raise any flags?
Just wondering how this works with larger amounts of profit.
Banks are required by law to report money transfers over $9500.00 fishy or not. Actually they are supposed to report any banking activity out of the “ordinary”, post 911, your local bank is supposed to be keeping an eye on you.
You would pay taxes at the end of the year when you file (for the first year), then based on that for the following year(s) you would be expected to make quarterly payments.
Ok anything over 3K gets reported. If the money comes from a banking or monetary related industry. Within the US and registered is only recorded. 10K and over gets a CTR and its reported to the treasury dept. It doesnt raise a flag. You can choose how you want to be taxed quarterly or yearly. But your first year it has to be yearly. You pay taxes on the pull out minus your deposits. Ex. you deposit 20K and pull out 30K you pay taxes on 10K. But your bank will treat you alot better when they see those deposits.
im sorry i cant say i fully understand wut u said.
but i know i have gotten a 1099(ithink) from the broker with profit(loss) amount on it…that is the amount i pay taxes on?
but my original question was , do i have to pay taxes on the profit amount if it it deposited away into a seperate bank

The simple answer is yes, you will have to pay tax on your withdrawls at the end of the year.
The easiest thing to do is print off your account statement for the year and give them to your accountant. If you are earning some serious coin, i would suggest you do not go to the local HnR Block for the $25.00 tax return.
Yes what you withdraw is your tax liabilities. Oanda sends 1099’s to you, your bank and the IRS(i hate them for that). It doenst matter which account you put the money in. It depends on you brokers account you withdraw from.
Pablopluto has nailed it for all of you ---- wins vs. losses less deductions are payable as tax at the end of the year no matter where the money lives on that day !
kinda simple our IRS — just send em the money, but learn how to take deductions, of course !
