The IRS is sharing more details on how to report digital assets for the 2022 tax filing year, according to draft instructions. Since 2019, there's been a yes or no "virtual currency" question on tax returns, requiring filers to check a box to disclose their taxable crypto activity. For 2022, the agency has changed the term "virtual currency" to "digital asset," with more guidance on when to check "yes." Notably, "digital asset" now includes non-fungible tokens, or NFTs, which grant ownership to items like art, and stablecoins, which are pegged to a real-world asset. The "broader language" may include new categories, such as taxpayers receiving digital assets from "play-to-earn games," which have become popular over the past year, he said.
The IRS continues to chase U.S. taxpayers who failed to report and pay taxes on cryptocurrency transactions with a new court order allowing a summons for customer records. The agency will issue a so-called "John Doe summons" requiring M.Y. It's not the first IRS summons for crypto records, but it's unusual because the broker seems to be "quite small," signaling the possibility of more to come, said Andrew Gordon, tax attorney, CPA and president of Gordon Law Group in Skokie, Illinois. While the first summons for crypto tax records triggered IRS letters for unreported income and unpaid taxes, the response took a few years, said Matt Metras, an enrolled agent and cryptocurrency tax specialist at MDM Financial Services in Rochester, New York. "I'm curious to see what happens with all this data they're collecting," said Metras, noting that the IRS may try to match it with investors' tax returns.
