As a platform connecting service providers with potential clients, Angi taxes are paid by the independent contractors on the generated income. As Angi doesn't directly impose taxes; the responsibility lies with the individual contractors to report and pay the relevant taxes on Angi income. Generally, contractors on Angi will receive an email from Stripe asking to set up their payment account and provide their contact and tax info. Once the income threshold has been crossed, Stripe will send a 1099-K either electronically or physically. The 1099-K threshold has been through quite a few changes over the past years. It was first announced that the new threshold would be $600 and implemented in 2022. Then, this was delayed to 2023, and now further delayed to 2024. So for the 2023 tax year, you will only get a 1099-K if you make over $20,000 and have over 200 transactions. This rule may differ depending on the state you live in, so make sure to do some research. You will have to pay SE tax on income over $400 so you’ll need to pay taxes even if you don’t receive a 1099-K from Angi. A self-employment tax calculator is a good tool for this.
