The IRS requires taxpayers to report "all digital asset-related income" on their 2022 federal income tax return. Digital assets, according to the IRS definition, include not only cryptocurrency but also non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and stablecoins.
On your 1040 tax form, the one used to report individual income, you'll have to answer "yes" or "no" to the following question:
"At any time during 2022, did you: (a) receive (as a reward, award, or payment for property or services); or (b) sell, exchange, gift, or otherwise dispose of a digital asset (or a financial interest in a digital asset)?"
If you held on to a digital asset in 2022 but didn't purchase more of it or sell any of it or you transferred it to another account, you generally don't have to answer yes, according to the IRS' instructions.
However, if you sold any digital assets whether at a loss or for a gain, you must answer yes to the question and use form 8949 to record your capital gain or loss. You must also check yes and fill out the form if you acquired any new digital assets during the year. That may include digital assets you may have received as a form of compensation in 2022.
Please call us if you need help with reporting your digital asset transactions on your tax return. 509-389-2379

As tax season has begun, we are having to let people know that last year the tax credits were extremely generous and this year they have reverted back to previous year's amounts.

The credits that are affected are the Earned Income Tax Credit and the Child Tax Credit. Fortunately for lower income people in Washington State the new Working Families Credit helps to offset the difference.

Let us know if we can help you with your tax situation this year.
