Reporting saving account and brokerage account earnings.  Reply with quote  

If you go one year without reporting earnings from saving and brokerage accounts how often does the IRS catch on.

Banks report directly to the IRS so you bettter claim it..... most will only make you claim it if you made more than a 100 in interest.... but no matter what you earn the bank will report it....

I guess it would depend on how much it is.... I mean you need to claim all of your earnings... but if you talkeing under 50 bucks i doubt the IRS will come knocking down your door... but it is your personal call as i don't think anyone on the site will tell you not to report it because you are suppose to. I have never had to change what i ahd filed so i don't know what the process is if you filed in correctly....
