How much hobby income can one make per year without paying taxes on it.?

Ayesha Genova: 49 cents.As everything is rounded to the nearest dollar, 49 cents would round down to 0 and not have to be reported.Assuming that your main source of income already puts you over the filing requirement, any additional income (even $1) must be reported.Your hobby expenses (up to the amount of your hobby income) are claimed on Schedule A as a misc. itemized deduction subject to 2% of your income....Show more

Gwenda Micheals: There is no deduction for "Hobby" Expenses. A hobby is just that, a hobby. If you sell things then it is considered INCOME and you will need to report all income. If you participate in this "hobby" more than 50% of your time, then it is considered self employment and you will need to report your income above $400 (income minus expenses) on a schedule "C".

Carli Watterson: i think if you make less than $600. anything above that, you have to report to the irs.http://www.points2shop.com/index.php?ref=henrii
