<prompt> Human: EDIT Should be 260 a month, not 130A little more info:I get around 65 a week from donating plasma, and they pay me by putting money on a reloadable Visa card every time I donate.Do I need to report this as income, pay taxes, etc on this money? Or do I just ignore it when doing any kind of filing? If it helps, heres their website: Thanks in advance for any insight!  <response>: Honest answer: Yes, it is income. Also, its not a donation if youre getting paid.Dodgy answer: Did the company report the payment to the IRS? Did you receive a 1099? If so, yes, you need to report it. If not, you could risk not reporting it; but, if the IRS finds out about the unreported income, expect a letter and a bill in the mail later this year .
